The Oakland A's have traded infielder Jace Peterson to the Arizona Diamondbacks in exchange for right-hander Chad Patrick. (Oakland A's Communications on Twitter)
Fantasy Impact:
The A's are also sending cash considerations to the D-backs in the swap. Peterson, 33, has provided some speed on the basepaths with 11 swipes on the season but he is also hitting just .221 with six homers across 324 plate appearances. He will slide into a utility role with the D-backs, previously occupied by Josh Rojas who was traded to the Seattle Mariners as part of a package for reliever Paul Sewald on Monday.
