While this deal would look to leave the Padres a bit short in the starting pitching department, it would give them a prime 2B and catching prospect. If San Diego can go out and sign some pitchers this winter (supposedly they're near the top of the Barry Zito list), then I could see the deal working out from a team perspective.

Peavy to the Braves is the sort of move that used to elicit the "Oh no, they've got him" response from me (e.g. the rich get richer), but this sort of move terrifies me a lot less now that Leo Mazzone is in Baltimore.
