Jon Heyman of SI.com says the two sides have agreed to a deal that would send Peavy to the White Sox.  All that's left is the approval of Peavy.

According to Peavy's agent, Barry Axelrod, he would enjoy "Middle America," but it's still yet to be seen if he'll pick an American League team since it's well known that Jake wanted to stay in the National League.

According to Corey Brock of MLB.com, there apparently is a potential deal being discussed between the San Diego Padres and, no, not the Chicago Cubs, but the Chicago White Sox.

There's no indication what players would be coming back from the White Sox, but there are a few stumbling blocks that could bring this deal to a screeching halt. First, Peavy has a no-trade clause in his contact which means he gets to decide where he goes and, second, Peavy has made it clear that he wants to stay in San Diego or at the least in the National League.

Keep an eye on this story, because. if this deal is in the works. it comes at a very interesting time, especially with San Diego in the middle of a five game win streak.
