The Cleveland Indians traded outfielder Shin-Soo Choo to the Cincinnati Reds Tuesday night in a trade that involves three teams and nine players, reports CBSSports.com.

Indians shortshop Jason Donald is also going to the Reds with Choo, while Reds centerfielder Drew Stubbs and pitcher Patrick Corbin are headed to Cleveland.

The Indians also receive right-handed pitchers Trevor Bauer, Matt Albers and Bryan Shaw from the Arizona Diamondbacks. Reds minor league shortshop Didi Gregorius, Indians left-hander Tony Sipp and first baseman Lars Anderson were traded to the Arizona.

Indians may not be done working deals and shortstop Asdrubal Cabrera could be the next one traded. To complete the trade, the Indians will send the Reds about $3.5 million to account for the differences in the projected salaries between Choo and Stubbs.

Choo, who played right field for the Indians and is entering free agency in 2013, will likely play center field and bat leadoff for the Reds. Choo hit .283 with 16 homers and 67 RBIs in 155 games last season.

Stubbs batted .213 with 14 homers and 40 RBIs, and but also struck out 166 times in 493 at-bats.

The Cincinnati Reds are “deep in talks” with the Cleveland Indians on a trade that would send outfielder Shin-Soo Choo to Cincinnati for outfielder Drew Stubbs and shortstop Didi Gregorious, according to CBSSports.com’s Danny Knobler.

The Indians have shopped the 30-year-old Choo, who batted .283 with 16 home runs and 67 RBI last season, throughout the offseason in hopes of landing a package of young players before he hits free agency next year.

The 28-year-old Stubbs, the eighth overall pick in the 2006 draft, is under team control for three more seasons after posting a .213 average and 30 stolen bases last season. He hit a career-high .255 with 22 home runs and 30 steals in 2010.

Gregorious, 22, is considered one of the Reds’ top prospects. Acquiring him could allow the Indians to deal current shortstop Asdrubal Cabrera, who has drawn strong trade interest.

The Reds plan to shift Choo, who has played primarily right field in Cleveland, to center field and bat him leadoff, according to the report, which also states that Cincinnati will likely receive an additional player.

The left-handed hitter is known for his patience at the plate, as he owns a .381 career on-base percentage after posting a .373 OBP last season.
