With Jake Peavy wanting to stay in the National League, it begs the question whether he would approve a trade to the Phillies. "I have not discussed Philly with Jake because nobody has asked us to discuss Philly," said Peavy's agent, Barry Axelrod. Peavy has a full no-trade clause, which means he can veto any trade. He recently vetoed a trade to the Chicago White Sox. "He has a strong preference to play in the National League," he said. "He also wants to play for a contender. Both of those two things play into Philly's hands. ... The personnel is awesome. If there is one downside, it's the geographical difference for him, given that he has made his family home in the San Diego area."
