I wasn't aware there was any BS Peavy trade talk.Quote:

I've heard rumors involving Peavy also, but they were to the Indians as well......so I guess those are dead now
Peavy's name was brought up with the Mets and another team. I am trying to find a link but these rumor sites only go back so far. It was sometime last week.Quote:

Milledge and Heilman were mentioned and maybe Pelfry. And yes you do need an OFer.
And just when did you get this third baseman of the future? Today?
I'll go ape shit if we trade Peavy for prospects.
I think he's refering to Kevin Kouzmanoff.Quote:

Supposed to be a masher......tore up AAA....and they were really high on him but had a log jam at 3rd.....
So Soriano at 2nd, DR in LF now ?
What? The Padres traded Barfield? I would be going ape shit right now!!! I wouldn't trade Peavy just yet either so I know what you mean. I remember them talking about that guy when the Indians got Marte last season but wasn't he hurt?
The speculation is that Marcus Giles will be playing 2nd base as a Padre next year.
I'd obviously prefer Soriano, but we know how the bidding's going to be there. (Although maybe we'd have a leg up if we told him he could play 2nd for us?)
Yes they did.....and I am.....I think we got screwed in the deal personally, but we'll have to wait and see what they do now.....
Aki can play 2nd.....Soriano can play 2nd.........etc.....so we'll see
And, as of right now, i'm not happy about the Barfield trade....but i'm waiting to see who they replace him with before I make any real opinion on it.
Loretta ... Barfield ... eh, they're replaceable.
