Atlanta Braves General Manager Frank Wren has told ESPN that trade talks with the San Diego Padres regarding ace pitcher Jake Peavy have ended. Assumption is that San Diego GM Kevin Towers was asking too high a price for the Cy Young winner. The last known offer from Atlanta included shortstop Yunel Escobar, pitchers Charlie Morton, Blaine Boyer and minor league center fielder Gorkys Hernandez. Towers had been pursuing top Braves pitching prospect Tommy Hanson, deemed untouchable by the Braves GM.
