    All-Star pitcher Gio Gonzalez said Thursday the Oakland Athletics have agreed to trade him to the Washington Nationals, and the deal is nearly finished.

    "It's 99 percent done," Gonzalez said in a phone interview with The Associated Press. "It's pending a physical and I'm just waiting to hear from my agent."

    The Athletics will receive right-hander Brad Peacock, catcher Derek Norris, left-hander Tommy Milone and right-hander A.J. Cole, a team source told ESPN Insider Keith Law.

    The Nationals will also receive minor league right-hander Rob Gilliam from the A's, reported The Associated Press, citing a source with knowledge of the deal.
