Jake Peavy's agent said he recently gave Towers a list of teams to which Peavy might consent to being traded, according to the Los Angeles Times. On that list were the Los Angeles Dodgers, Atlanta Braves, Chicago Cubs, Houston Astros and St. Louis Cardinals.The Padres lost 99 games this season despite 173.2 innings and a 2.85 ERA from their ace. They are now in rebuilding mode and should be able to fetch a slew of top prospects for the right-hander who has a reasonable contract all the way through 2012.
Dylan Hernandez, of the Los Angeles Times, reports San Diego Padres SP Jake Peavy might be open to a trade to the Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim because they are close to his home in San Diego. Peavy has previously said that he does not want to be traded to an American League team.
The San Diego Union-Tribune's Tom Krasovic reports San Diego Padres SP Jake Peavy said he would not accept a trade to the American League. His agent, Barry Axelrod, said Peavy would accept a trade to a team with a solid chance of winning. The teams mentioned were the Atlanta Braves, Chicago Cubs, Houston Astros, Los Angeles Dodgers and St. Louis Cardinals.
The Peavy rumors are starting to pick up steam, though Towers said last week that no deal was imminent. For the hard-throwing right-hander to be moved, a package like the one Oakland received for Dan Haren last offseason would have to be offered in return.
Jake Peavy told reporters at the end of the season that he would not accept a trade to the AL. When asked about his trade stance again Tuesday in the midst of reports that he's on the block Peavy responded that he didn't "want to get into any speculation." His preference is important given the full no-trade clause included in his recent contract extension. "Jake has a strong preference to stay in the National League," agent Barry Axelrod said. Alexrod added that "Jake would only approve a trade to a team with a solid chance of winning," specifically mentioning Atlanta, Chicago, Houston, Los Angeles and St. Louis as cities that fit "his and his family's lifestyle."Source: San Diego Union-Tribune
