Athletics acquired INF/OF Vincent Catricala from the Mariners in exchange for cash or a player to be named later.
Catricala had been designated for assignment a week ago. He had a monster season in 2011 in the minors but hasn't done much since. He's just 24, though, so it's a worthy gamble by the A's. Jun 9 - 12:12 PM

Vincent Catricala - 3B - Athletics

Mariners designated INF/OF Vincent Catricala for assignment.

The move was made in order to clear a 40-man roster spot for Jeremy Bonderman. Catricala has batted just .253/.318/.351 with three homers at the Double-A level this season. He has a good shot to clear waivers.

Vincent Catricala - 3B - Athletics

Mariners purchased the contract of INF/OF Vincent Catricala from Triple-A Tacoma.

He's now on the 40-man roster. Catricala batted just .229/.292/.348 with 10 homers at Tacoma this season, but he posted big numbers in his first two minor league seasons.

Vincent Catricala - 3B - Athletics

Mariners' manager Eric Wedge said Wednesday that prospect Vincent Catricala will get a look at third base during spring training.

Catricala, 23, batted .349/.421/.601 with 25 homers, 106 RBI and a 1.021 OPS between High-A High Desert and Double-A Jackson last season. There are serious doubts about his defensive ability at third base, so he may end up as a left fielder in the long-term.
