Oakland A's Trade Trevor Cahill To Arizona Diamondbacks

Oakland A's pitchers Trevor Cahill and Craig Breslow are on their way to join the Arizona Diamondbacks, according to Joe Stiglich of the Contra Costa Times.  In return the A's will receive pitchers Jarrod Parker and Ryan Cook and outfielder Collin Cowgill.

Cahill, who projects as a third starter in Arizona's rotation, is the centerpiece of the deal.  In 2010, Cahill was an All-Star and finished ninth in Cy Young voting after finishing the season with a 2.97 ERA.  The right-hander's 2011 was slightly less impressive, but he started went 12-14 through 34 starts and finished the season with a 4.16 ERA.
