Former Cub Aaron Miles is heading to Cincinnati along with a player to be named later. In exchange, the Oakland A's are receiving outfielder Willy Taveras and utility man Adam Rosales.
Miles played in just 74 games for the Cubs last year, who traded him to the A's at the end of the season. Miles' limited appearances were primarily to due to injuries to his throwing shoulder and elbow.
Miles is a career .282 hitter, having played for the Chicago White Sox, Colorado Rockies, St. Louis Cardinals and Cubs. In 2008, he hit a career-high .317 in 134 games.
Miles was a member of the Cardinals' 2006 World Series championship club. A true utility man, Miles has played every defensive position except first base and catcher. Miles has even made three appearances as a pitcher.
