It didn't break early, though. They have supposedly been talking for a week, and nothing broke until the deal was either already done or very close to it, because Peavy was asked about it last night.

What I'll be doing if/when this falls through...

I kind of wish this was kept private...

I say let him stay in San Diego. If he is that worried about coming to the AL, I don't want him. Evidently he wants to stay in the NL for a reason.

Awesome. Now Kaplan's co-hosting the pre-game show.

Didn't I see somewhere that KW has been looking into Peavy for 11 months too?

Linebrink would probably be referring to discussions he had with Peavy. What his agent is telling him is another thing.

I guess if my bosses at work had the option to trade me to another police department pending my approval I would have to take a day or two to think about it as well. I am comfortable where and who I work for and really get along with the people I work with. Wakin up and goin to work knowing its a comfortable atmoshpere is really soothing. So I guess I can empatize with Jake Peavy. Its a big life change for him and his family , etc. So if he does reject the trade, I will not HATE him like I though I would

Perhaps, but it would be nice if Kenny stopped going after guys with a NTC. It would be a little better for my personal health and well being.

30 minutes until the game starts I need something to take my mind off this deal.

It's cause he's not Chicago tough.

What's weird is that his agent made statements like "if I had to bet on it." Then he said he only spoke with Peavy for a half hour last night. I wonder how old this information is. He's had to be talking to Peavy about it today.

I hate Kaplan! Complete and moronic sports anaylist or whatever the hell he is. I still rememeber during a White Sox rain delay this year, he talked nothing but Cubs.

If Peavy was just told about it last night, it's a big move to think about moving two school age kids. But, he seemingly already was set to move to Chicago for the other team, and it is the perfect time to move with the kids done with school in a week or so. So what does this really come down to?

He's a *****. A player that has balls, takes the trade to wherever it is they are traded to. To say you want to stay in the NL, shows me, he is a *****.
