    Piniella said Cubs are done chasing Peavy

    If there were any lingering questions about whether the Chicago Cubs had pulled back from pursuing San Diego Pardes ace Jake Peavy in a trade, manager Lou Piniella answered them this week.

    The Chicago Sun-Times' Gordon Wittenmyer asked Piniella at an event in Chicago on Sunday whether the Cubs were still pursuing starting pitching in the wake of their four-year contract extension with free agent right-hander Ryan Dempster.

    "No," Piniella was quoted as saying in Tuesday's Chicago Sun-Times.

    At this point it looks like the Padres may have to keep him or take FAR less than what they wanted. I was hoping St Louis would get in on this considering the money they've cleared this offseason....looks like they're not willing....I'm not sure who is at this point.
