<!--quoteo-->QUOTE <!--quotec-->According to ESPN.com, Jake Peavy's agent "expressed doubt Thursday that his client is ready to sign off on a proposed trade" with the White Sox.
The agent, Barry Axelrod, told ESPN's Jerry Crasnick that his client still has a "strong preference" to remain in the National League. "If I had to make a bet on it, I would guess that Jake would say he's not ready to take that step today,'' Axelrod said. "But he wouldn't necessarily preclude it at any time in the future." Peavy is scheduled to start Friday, so a deal isn't likely to be finalized before the weekend.
