The Boston Red Sox and Chicago White Sox have been discussing a possible trade for Jake Peavy for days but were unable to find an agreeable match. It wasn't until they engaged the Detroit Tigers on Tuesday, Boston general manager Ben Cherington said, that the pieces finally fell into place. The end result was a three-team, seven-player deal in which Boston received the 32-year-old veteran starter they were seeking to bolster their rotation for a postseason run. The Tigers, meanwhile, acquired gifted gloveman Jose Iglesias from Boston as the shortstop they will need if All-Star Jhonny Peralta is suspended, as anticipated, as part of MLB's Biogenesis investigation. The White Sox acquired outfielder Avisail Garcia, regarded as the top power prospect in the Detroit system, plus three prospects from the Red Sox: 100-mph throwing right-hander from Class A Greenville, 20-year-old Dominican Francelis Montas, righty J.B. Wendelken and infielder Cleuluis Rondon. Boston also acquired another player from Detroit's 40-man roster, right-handed reliever Brayan Villarreal, who is currently with Triple-A Toledo and has been sidelined with a sprained thumb. Villareal will be assigned to Boston's Triple-A team, Pawtucket. Read more http://espn.go.com/boston/mlb/story...al-involving-chicago-white-sox-detroit-tigers
