Report: Kottaras Could be Traded Somewhere Else

The Oakland A's acquired catcher George Kottaras from the Milwaukee Brewers on Saturday afternoon, but apparently don't plan on keeping him for long.

Tom Haudricourt of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports that the Kottaras trade has not yet been made official because they are waiting on the A's to make another move, possibly involving Kottaras himself. 

#Brewers trade of C George Kottaras to Oakland might not be announced tonight. Apparently waiting for A's to do another move first.

The A's are looking for help on the infield, so they could quite possibly be using Kottaras as an extra trade chip to land the player they are looking for.
