The Catchup V.2

So, as it turns out a friend of ours from Indiana was part of the recent A's-Diamondbacks deal....see below:

From ESPN.com
The NL West champions acquired Haren from the rebuilding Oakland Athletics and traded major league saves leader Jose Valverde to Houston in separate swaps involving 12 players Friday.


Oakland also sent right-hander Connor Robertson to Arizona and received six players: left-handers Brett Anderson, Dana Eveland and Greg Smith; infielder Chris Carter; and outfielders Aaron Cunningham and Carlos Gonzalez.

The last known employ of our friend Aaron was Greencroft, now it looks like it's the Oakland Athletics. I also knew him to be more of a first basemen, now he's an outfielder.

On a more accurate note, the last player mentioned, Carlos Gonzalez was a guy I saw play in South Bend, he and Carlos Quetin. You could tell those two had a chance, because they were putting up numbers then (which you should in Single-A).
