PEAVY UPDATE: Talks collapse, Cubs pull out of Peavy discussions
9:57 a.m.: The Jake Peavy trade talks have collapsed.
Padres General Manager Kevin Towers said Cubs GM Jim Hendry told him this morning the deal will not happen.
Moments ago Kevin Towers and Jim Hendry announced that the Peavy deal is dead.
But he said Hendry told him the Cubs are "moving on to other things."
"If he wants to go somewhere else, we need to sit down as an organization and discuss if we want to go through this process again," Towers said.
The Padres have not decided whether to announce that Peavy will be with the Padres in 2009. It sounds like they are either going to try and revive talks with the Cubs or encourage Peavy to choose another team to be traded to.
This deal isn't over until you know what...
There! Maybe now it's over.

You take that picture down right now!
That’s an eyesore!
Isn't it enough to know that I ruined a pony making a gift for you?
ship him to the Yankees
we don’t have to play him every year, we (presumably) get better returns, and we can watch Big Game Jake choke time and time again on ESPN
Based on the money they are throwing around
At CC and possibly Burnett, Lowe and Pettite with Wang and Joba settled in the rotation, they don’t seem too interested in trying to develop Hughes and Kennedy. So maybe they’ll deal them instead.
"Whoa... You can't say stuff like that!"
"I get it Chief. I'll play ball. You just gotta blow the whistle and call the fouls. Alright?"
Better idea
Step 1. Yankees bailout the Big 3.
Step 2. ????
Step 3. PROFIT!

"Whoa... You can't say stuff like that!"
"I get it Chief. I'll play ball. You just gotta blow the whistle and call the fouls. Alright?"
Isn't Brandon Wood the same as Greene
with less defense? And hopefully its more then just two pitchers and a SS/3B semi prospect

Wood was a monster prospect not too long ago
Maybe “we” could buy on the low side.
ummm your obviously not familiar with Padres baseball...
we like to buy high and sell low thank you very much!
correction
buy low, promise of a high, then see them go lower.

Jake, don't look so upset
Oh, and you should return that wretched garb from whence it came, purging from your memory all lyrical arrangements such as shanties, chants, carols, refrains, or even lays relating to the Cubs. So it shall be written.
