Let's trade to get Peavy from San Diego



Hey SD is 10 games back and Arizona is probably going to win it all this year with their combo of pitching/hitting.

Good time for SD to unload those expensive contracts. I'll give them Bailey.

Peavy isn't expensive, he signed a cheap contract because he likes SD so much.

Re: Let's trade to get Peavy from San Diego

Who would trade one of the top 3 pitchers in the league when he's still young and under contract?

Re: Let's trade to get Peavy from San Diego

im sure the padres would want to start the conversation with bruce and one of your young stud SP's (cueto, volsquez, bailey) and maybe even want another prospect. To rich for me, lets just let cueto, volsquez and bailey develop into pitchers like peavy.

Peavy's not available. This is pointless.

Yeah, maybe we can flip Ryan Freel for him and get Johan for Paul Bako.

I'm sure the Yankees or Red Sox would be willing to spend the moon on signing a pitcher as talented as Peavy.

They paid an awful lot for Dice K, and he's not Peavy.
