The San Francisco Giants are interested in re-signing
right-handed starter Jake Peavy, the Boston Globe reported.
According to the report, Peavy, 33, could possibly command a
three-year free-agent deal. After struggling with the Boston Red
Sox, Peavy pitched like an ace down the stretch for the Giants
since reuniting with manager Bruce Bochy.
Peavy also pitched for Bochy when the two were with the San
Diego Padres.
Peavy, the Giants starting pitcher in Game Two on Sunday, Peavy
went 6-4 with a 2.17 ERA after being traded to the Giants.
Bochy said right-hander Tim Hudson will start Game Three of the
National League Championship Series on Tuesday at AT&T Park in
San Francisco. Right-hander John Lackey will get the call for
St. Louis.
