Nick Cafardo @nickcafardo The Rangers and Orioles would provide Michael Young a definitive role but the Red Sox may have the best pkg to offer Philly

Buster Olney ?@buster_ESPN 37s Current read on Peavy talks: 1. Oakland. 2. St. Louis 3. Boston 4. Baltimore
(Note: given the post immediately prior, looks like it is Oakland's trade to lose)

"While industry sentiment considers the Oakland Athletics favorites for Peavy, that may be by default. First-year general manager Rick Hahn is asking for every interested organization’s top prospect, from Oakland’s Addison Russell to Boston’s Xander Bogaerts, both of which are complete non-starters. Peavy simply is not enough of a sure thing for a team to risk that, and accordingly executives believe the asking price will drop enough in the next three days where Hahn will instead target a package of prospects to replenish a farm system considered among the game’s worst." sports.yahoo.com/news/10-degrees--jake-peavy-the-best-of-a-thin-trade-market-as-players-brace-for-biogenesis-suspensions-052915787.html

The Braves just got Scott Downs for a AAA reliever (Boston org comp: Alex Wilson). Here's how he compares with Matt Thornton over the last two years. In Fenway, I might prefer Downs' elite ground ball rates over Thornton's declining strikeouts. They're both LOOGYs at this point in their careers. I would have also preferred to give up an Alex Wilson-type over a Brandon Jacobs-type. Hopefully the Red Sox can pick up a similar right-handed reliever for a similar price as the deadline approaches, as opposed to paying the premium that the Orioles did for KRod.

Buster Olney ?@buster_ESPN 23m The White Sox are telling other teams they're going to keep Peavy and build around him.
Buster Olney ?@buster_ESPN 18m The White Sox may well be trying to apply more leverage in the Peavy talks by saying they're holding him, before making a move... We'll see.

"BOSTON. The Red Sox can handle the financial load. And they have the chips in their system to make a major trade. So for a long time last week, other clubs have been forecasting they were Peavy's most logical landing point. But the stance the Red Sox have taken in the recent past was: They'll take the money, or they'll give up the prospects, but they won't do both. And that has a chance to be a deal-breaker in this case, because other teams say the White Sox haven't shown any interest in digesting money to get this deal done." espn.go.com/mlb/story/_/page/rumblings130729/white-sox-jake-peavy-trade-likely

Each time Peavy's strengths are brought up, John Farrell compares him to Brandon Workman, who Farrell says "can do that."

"The Red Sox "may be willing to part with whatever it takes" in hopes of acquiring the Marlins' Giancarlo Stanton, a league source tells MLB.com's Joe Frisaro. Still, the Marlins have pretty much closed the door on trading Stanton for now"
From MLB TRADE RUMORS.com
If the Sox could pull this off without trading Xander it would be incredible.
