Giants, Red Sox Near Jake Peavy Deal

By charliewilmoth | July 26, 2014 at 10:07am CDT

10:06am: The Red Sox are “close” to trading Peavy to the Giants, Rosenthal and Jon Morosi report (via Twitter), although there are still details to be ironed out before the deal is done.

9:58am: Yesterday, the Red Sox and Giants were in the midst of serious talks regarding Peavy, Ken Rosenthal of FOX Sports tweets. The Giants don’t have much starting pitching depth right now and currently have Yusmeiro Petit in the rotation in place of the injured Matt Cain. Also, Peavy and Giants manager Bruce Bochy worked together when they both were with the Padres.

9:33am: The Red Sox are “close” to trading starting pitcher Jake Peavy to an unknown National League team, Jen Royle of the Boston Herald tweets. (She notes, however, that “[l]ots of things need to happens before this gets done.”) That NL team is not the Cardinals, who have lately been connected to Peavy. (The Red Sox had reportedly been scouting the Cardinals’ system in case Peavy trade discussions advanced.) The Braves have also reportedly been involved in Peavy trade talks, and Royle guesses that the Giants or Brewers could also be possibilities.

Peavy has a 4.72 ERA with 7.3 K/9 and 3.3 BB/9 in 124 innings this season. He is making $14.5MM this season before heading to free agency this winter.

    Good. As much as I like Peavy the person, he was not great this year. Time to move on and bring up Workman/Webster/Ranaudo. I assume it’ll be Workman, though.

      He had a great run from 04 to 08 before he got hurt, though

    Great, can we move him before his next start? No way he beats Archer.

      Ben Dover, you wouldn’t happen to be related to Eileen Dover?

      Peavy for BJ would be fine by me. Braves eat some extra cash or throw in a prospect for Andrew Miller.

          don’t be so sure. There was some discussion between the two teams last week about BJ.

            welp, I guess not. The Giants got him. BJ could still be going to the Sox before the deadline though.

    I bet its the Giants, they would rather have Peavy start against the Dodgers than Yusmeiro Petit

    if Peavy heads to the Giants, he will be a plus in the post season.

      He has been in the playoffs 3 times in his career. In 2005 he had a 16.62 ERA and was 0-1. In 2006 he was 0-1 with a 8.44 ERA and last year was 0-1 with a 9.03 ERA in the playoffs. Other interesting facts: 1) he averages 4 and two thirds per post season outing 2) he averages giving up 4.6 earned runs in those 4 and two thirds 3) he averages 7 hits in those 4 2/3 with 4) 2.6 strikeouts in those 4 2/3 to 1.6 walks

      so would a bag of peanuts get the deal done now? Or do you this that the Giants would be offering less?
