San Diego Padres General Manager Kevin Towers made it clear that he woud like to deal Jake Peavy to Chicago.
That's about all the Padres and their fans are chatting about.
"It comes down to, 'Does Jim have the wherewithall to make it happen?'" Towers said.
We have six starting pitchers," Piniella said. "Any time you can add a quality, quality guy, whoever it is, obviously you look at it. I said [earlier this offseason] from basically a numbers standpoint, we have five starters and [Sean] Marshall, and that's why I mentioned that [we weren't interested in Peavy]. Any time you can improve your team either pitching-wise or lineup-wise and you can do it, get it done. If we don't add any starting pitching, I'm perfectly happy with what we've got."
Peavy has been quite the topic this offseason. If he should be traded to Chicago, he'd be joining an already potent starting rotation joining Carlos Zambrano, Ryan Dempster, Ted Lilly, Rich Hill, and Jason Marquis.
