Barry Axelrod made one concrete stipulation to any trade scenarios involving Jake Peavy: ?Jake would only approve a trade to a team with a solid chance of winning and a winning tradition. Those teams in the National League may be in locations that are more acceptable or would be.? He said, ?The ability or opportunity to win is very important to Jake, and hopefully some sort of coincidence with his and his family's lifestyle.? Among the cities Axelrod mentioned were Atlanta, Chicago, Houston, Los Angeles, and St. Louis.
