OAKLAND, Calif. (AP) -- The Oakland Athletics have traded left-hander Dana Eveland to the Toronto Blue Jays for a player to be named later or cash considerations.

The 26-year-old Eveland was designated for assignment by the club Monday. While Eveland began and finished the 2009 season in the A's rotation, he mostly pitched for Triple-A Sacramento.

He went 2-4 with a 7.16 ERA in 13 appearances and nine starts during three stints with the A's and was 8-6 with a 4.94 ERA in 21 starts at Sacramento.

Eveland came to the A's in the trade that sent Dan Haren to the Arizona Diamondbacks in December 2007.
