Jake Peavy to Chicago! wait, um, White Sox?

Jake Peavy to Chicago! wait, um, White Sox?

By Brett on May 21, 2009

Maybe when Jake Peavy said he really wanted to come to Chicago if he were traded, he didn’t necessarily just mean the North Side. The latest rumor, seemingly spread late Wednesday night, has Peavy coming to the Sox in a trade from the Padres for Aaron Poreda and other top prospects. DailyHerald.com Blogs. A move [...]

Obsessive Peavywatch: Tired of It Yet? Too Bad!

By Brett on May 20, 2009

You missed it. Admit it. You missed it. The Obsessive Peavywatch is back! New scuttlebutt from Jayson Stark has Jake Peavy possibly on the move, and the Cubs as a very possible destination. The Cubs’ ownership limbo now looks as if it might stretch until Christmas Eve. So who knows whether Cubs GM Jim Hendry [...]

Series Preview: Padres v. Cubs, May 12 – May 14, 2009

Series Preview: Padres v. Cubs, May 12 – May 14, 2009

By Brett on May 12, 2009

The Chicago Cubs take on the finally hapless San Diego Padres. Perhaps Jake Peavy’s wistful stares in the direction of the Cubs’ dugout will give the Cubs a leg up. A refresher on the series preview here at Bleacher Nation: The idea is to hook you up with the bare minimum of what you need [...]

Obsessive Peavywatch: The Cubs Literally Almost Acquired Jake Peavy

Obsessive Peavywatch: The Cubs Literally Almost Acquired Jake Peavy

By Brett on April 7, 2009

We all know that the Chicago Cubs were pursuing a deal for Jake Peavy in the offseason. But we had been led to believe that the deal never got past the preliminary stages of negotiation – i.e., who would be included, and do the teams really want to get serious. Well, apparently it was serious. [...]

The Bullpen Will Be Settled This Weekend, and No One Is Going on Waivers

The Bullpen Will Be Settled This Weekend, and No One Is Going on Waivers

By Brett on April 1, 2009

Chad Fox is no longer in the running for a bullpen spot after being told he’ll start the season at AAA Iowa, so it’s down to a competition between Jeff Samardzija, Chad Gaudin, Angel Guzman and David Patton for the two remaining spots. The team gave a pretty huge clue as to how things are [...]

Obsessive Peavywatch: Moorad’s in Control, and Willing to Move Peavy

By Brett on March 30, 2009

Now that Jeff Moorad has taken over the Padres, and has some indeterminate amount of control over player personnel decisions, he was bound to start getting peppered with Jake Peavy questions. And here are his first thoughts. The good news: he’s clearly willing to move Peavy. “[Jake] Peavy has been a terrific performer for the [...]

Obsessive Peavywatch: Enter the Brewers

Obsessive Peavywatch: Enter the Brewers

By Brett on March 27, 2009

Peter Gammons believes the Milwaukee Brewers will go after Jake Peavy when he undoubtedly becomes available later this year. While the source of his belief – current Brewer Bill Hall – likely has no more inside information into the matter than I do, the fit is there. The Brewers rotation is thin, and they’re likely [...]
