Josh Vitters in Peavy Trade?

Can somebody explain this one to me?  The Peavy trade talk to the Cubs and potentially the Orioles as a menais trois member seems to center around Josh Vitters who was the 3rd pick in the draft two years as a third baseman and some young pitching talent.  I am little bit of baseball draft geek, and I know that Vitters is suppose to have ungodly power potential with a short compact stroke ala Ryan Braun but haven't the Pads already had a logjam at 3rd base with Kouz and Headley.  Is the thought to unload Kouz (who has diminished value since surgery) and keep Headley in left?  Clearly, first base is taken up for the foreseeable future, right?
