If the Padres want to deal star pitcher Jake Peavy to the Cubs, it appears they have some work to do.
"The Peavy thing isn't dead, but it's on life support," one person familiar with the Cubs' dealings said.
With the Braves out of the talks, at least for the moment, the Cubs appeared to be San Diego's best hope for a trade. One reason for that is that Peavy seems willing to consider waiving his no-trade powers to join the Cubs.
Meanwhile, the Cubs are surveying the lefty hitter market, which is strong. Bobby Abreu, Raul Ibanez and Adam Dunn are among about a half-dozen hitters they're considering.

This Peavy business has me laughing,as this guy is only fit to pitch in the N.L.West.He has so much confidence in his stuff that he refuses to be traded to teams with a chance of winning the World Series.That is fine by me,another overated pitcher from the weakest division in baseball,and not just last season either.

Hurley, you're clueless! Peavy is filthy anywhere on planet earth. The Cubs staff would be ridiculous if he joined them but we all know its not going to happen. Just like the Brian Roberts rumors of last year.

The cubs have no management to make that decision. The Giants and Dodgers should try to pry Peavy away, its obvious that the Padres are dumping and its time for the Giants and Dodgers to seperate themselves from the rest of the NL West.
