At 36, Peavy is not the answer to the rotation. But he is an option to fill the back end of it. Whether it be realistic or not, when a former Cy Young Award winner speaks up, teams listen. Remember the whole tryout with Tim Lincecum? It will draw the attention of teams, but that may not translate to signing. If it does it will be cost effective and the Milwaukee Brewers should scoff at the idea.
Right off of the bat, is Peavy the best move?
No.
Is he the right move?
