Jake Peavy 2008 statistics: W-L ERA IP K BB 10-11 2.85 173 2/3 166 59 He's signed through 2012 (with an option for 2013) and can veto any trade, but Peavy's name always comes up in talks because of San Diego's recent struggles. It would take a ransom to pry him away (the Braves are reportedly close to a deal for the ace), and the Sox aren't likely to make a play for Peavy -- or any other front-line starter.
