Former Middletown High School standout Kyle Schwarber was traded Thursday night from the Washington Nationals to the Boston Red Sox, according to multiple reports.
Right-handed pitcher Aldo Ramirez is believed to be headed from Boston to Washington in exchange for Schwarber.
Schwarber is one of 11 players on MLB rosters from a Greater Cincinnati high school and/or former Cincinnati Bearcats, Miami RedHawks or Xavier Musketeers.
Last month, Schwarber - in his first season with the Nats - became the first player in Major League Baseball history to hit 15 home runs in a 17-day span.
But Schwarber left a game earlier this month with an injured right hamstring, and was placed on the 10-day injured list.
Schwarber, 28, is in his seventh Major League Baseball season.
