Until we hear directly from Jake Peavy himself, I'm going to assume that he has approved the trade. As you'll recall, the White Sox traded for Peavy earlier this season, had the names leak out, and hung in the wind for a day while Peavy decided the he didn't want to pitch in the AL. I don't know what's changed, if anything at all, but everyone is reporting this as if it's a done deal. Sox get: Jake Peavy (have to rely on Carlos Torres as 5th starter until Peavy's healthy) Padres get: Aaron Poreda, Clayton Richard, Adam Russell and Dexter Carter, per Mayo. Edit by larry at 4:01: Lillibridge has been called up and will be in uniform tonight.
