The third team in the Cubs and Padres trade centered around Jake Peavy could be the Orioles, according to the Baltimore Sun.If this deal were to occur, the Orioles would receive Cubs' outfielder Felix Pie. Peavy's stats could suffer a bit as Wrigley Field is more of a hitters' park than the Padres' Petco Park, but would more than likely benefit from playing for a stronger team like the Cubs.

Padres GM Kevin Towers has reportedly identified a third team that would allow the Padres to send Jake Peavy to the Cubs, according to Yahoo Sports. The Cubs would likely send Josh Vitters to San Diego or the third team as their centerpiece in the deal. Towers said that he planned to speak with Cubs GM Jim Hendry after Thanksgiving. Towers declined to name the third team that could be involved in the deal.The Cubs don't have the stud pitching prospect that the Padres have been looking for to replace Peavy once they deal him. The fact that Towers has found another team could mean that things move very quickly in the coming weeks. Peavy's motion also affects the free agent market for top-tier pitchers such as C.C. Sabathia, A.J. Burnett, and Derek Lowe. The Cubs have already re-signed Ryan Dempster, so adding Peavy would be more of a bonus acquisition than the team filling an actual need.

Braves' GM Frank Wren reiterated that Atlanta has ended their proposal for ace hurler Jake Peavy, according to the Atlanta Journal-Constitution. Wren said, "We reached the point where we made the decision that we just didnÂ’t feel like there was a deal that we could feel comfortable with. Peavy is obviously a quality top-of-the-rotation pitcher. But our focus is still to build our organization internally with our young players, and we had to measure at what point weÂ’d lose the ability to have a sustainable winning franchise going forward if we gave up too much talent. What we would be willing to do, and if that were not sufficient enough to get a deal done, that we were going to go ahead and move on to other pursuits and other opportunities."The Padres' asking price was too steep and the Braves did not want to compromise their future by unloading several of their top prospects for one player. It is unknown exactly which players were asked for by San Diego, but pitcher Tommy Hanson and outfielder Jason Heyward were believed to be mentioned. The Braves were more willing to part with shortstop Yunel Escobar, pitchers Blaine Boyer and Charlie Morton, and minor-league outfielder Gorkys Hernandez.

Tyler Flowers could be on the table to improve the Braves' chances of acquiring Padres' ace hurler Jake Peavy, according to Ken Rosenthal of FOX Sports.The Padres have asked the Braves to substitute Minor League catcher Tyler Flowers for Minor League outfielder Gorkys Hernandez in their trade offer for Jake Peavy. This makes sense as Flowers has significantly improved his stock with a strong showing in the Arizona Fall League, and the Braves could afford to deal him with elite catcher Brian McCann firmly planted behind home plate. Atlanta would just need to acquire depth at the position.

If the Braves don't end up trading for Jake Peavy, they could turn their attention to Matt Cain, the Atlanta Journal-Constitution's David O'Brien suggests. Atlanta is viewed as the favorites for Peavy, but they are also reportedly growing impatient with the Padres.Giants GM Brian Sabean said recently that Cain is untouchable, but we all know that's never really the case. That said, it does seem like a longshot he would be dealt to Hotlanta.

News: Jake Peavy probably will be traded by the Padres before the winter meetings next month. After spending four days at the annual general managers' meetings, Padres GM Kevin Towers said it is unlikely the 2007 NL Cy Young Award winner will remain with San Diego, which signed him out of high school in 1999. "The train's kind of left the station," Towers said Thursday. Guaranteed $63 million under a contract that runs through 2012, Peavy is relatively inexpensive when compared with what CC Sabathia is likely to get on the free-agent market. The right-hander also has a no-trade clause, so he can determine where he winds up. "We're not in control of the speed or the train," Peavy's agent, Barry Axelrod, said in a telephone interview. "The only thing we've got is a brake." Peavy's initial list of teams San Diego should concentrate on included Atlanta, the Chicago Cubs, Houston, the Los Angeles Dodgers and St. Louis. [...]

Agent Barry Axelrod said, "One of the things we will want to look at some point is, 'Who are you giving up? How much are you weakening your team to make this deal? If Team X trades three starting pitchers and a starting shortstop to get Jake Peavy, that lessens their chance of being a successful team."This will make it more difficult for Padres' GM Kevin Towers to deal Peavy, who wants to be traded but does not want his new team to be weakended in the deal.
