CLEVELAND (AP) A person familiar with the trade says the Cleveland Indians have acquired left-handed reliever Andrew Miller from the New York Yankees.

Cleveland will send four players, including highly touted outfielder Cliff Frazier to New York in exchange for Miller, according to the person who spoke to The Associated Press on condition of anonymity Sunday because the deal has not yet been finalized.

The Indians are also close to completing a deal for Milwaukee All-Star catcher Jonathan Lucroy. That trade is still pending physicals and Lucroy waiving his no-trade clause, the person said.

FOX Sports and ESPN.com first reported details of the Miller trade.

With a 4 1/2 game lead in the AL Central, the Indians feel these moves can help them win their first World Series since 1948.
