Towers said he has heard from clubs interested in trading for ace pitcher Jake Peavy. "We're having talks," he said.

The GM said he wouldn't be surprised if the Peavy talks heat up next month.

Dammit I’d hate to see Peavy go. I’m starting to get flashbacks of 1993.

Disgusting.

And I don’t even like the guy.

You dont' like Jake Peavy?

People the world over have always been more impressed by the power of our example than by the example of our power.

If Jake goes

Several friends of mine will no longer be Padre fans.

They’ve vented this to me already.

i know

a lot of people that wont be fans either
not just because they are fans of Jake but because they don’t like what the franchise is doing at all

i assume there probably are a lot of people that only watch the team for Jake so kinda sucks for the organization revenue will probably go way down

I don’t think I could ever forsake my Padres, but i might throw up a lot if this happens

Peavy

Let’s say Hank Steinbrenner instructs Brian Cashman to go get Jake Peavy no matter what the cost and the Yankees offer us a tremendous package (hehehe, I said tremendous package) that we can’t say no to…now, what happens if John Moores wants to make the deal…but Becky doesn’t. What happens then?

Re: Costanza's desk:

It was destroyed and replaced with “just lucite tables and four legs”.
You could be right about the Friends thing for all I know, though.

What the hell

The playoffs aren’t even over yet and you’re knee deep in sitcom DVDs aren’t you?

This is gonna get worse before it gets any better.

Isn't it enough to know that I ruined a pony making a gift for you?

The issue is just what is avaliable for him

Let’s face facts, if he produces a starting CF, a good pitcher, maybe a shortstop and another prospect, then trading Peavy is worth something. The Padres have all the cards – if some team doesn’t absolutely blow them away then they keep their ace. The only way I’ll lose it is if we trade him for the equivalent ‘bag of balls and a hot dog’

The divorce will force the Padres 09 payroll to drop from 73 mil to

between 40 – 53. Take Maddux, Bard and Barrett out of the mix and you still need to drop another 5 to 10 mil. Trading Peavy for a bunch of cheap prospects gets you there. Don’t look to get a good proven player(s).
