Professional career
[ edit ]
In 2001, the Mets traded Traber to the Cleveland Indians along with Matt Lawton , Alex Escobar , Earl Snyder , and Jerrod Riggan for Roberto Alomar , Mike Bacsik , and Danny Peoples.[3]
In 2002 , Traber was runner-up minor league pitcher of the year, going 17-5 for the Akron Aeros (Double-A ) and Buffalo Bisons (Triple-A ), and was voted by Baseball America curveball in the league.[citation needed His numbers were also good enough to give him top-honors for Cleveland pitching prospects.
On April 4, 2003 , Traber made his Major League debut.[4] ERA , 1-0 record in seven games that spring)—even pitching a one-hit shutout of the New York Yankees on July 8—Traber's season fell apart when elbow problems that haunted him in college and the minors came back to end his '03 campaign and ultimately the entire 2004 season when he needed Tommy John surgery .[5] [6]
During the 2004-2005 offseason, the Boston Red Sox signed Traber. Before playing a single game, he was placed on waivers by the Red Sox. On November 10, 2004, he was claimed by the Indians off waivers and was signed to a minor league deal on December 22, 2004.[7]
On December 5, 2007 , he was released by the Washington Nationals after having pitched for them the previous two seasons.[8]
On January 5, 2008 , he signed a minor league deal with the New York Yankees and was invited to spring training .[9] bullpen . He spent much of the season splitting time between the Yankees and their Triple-A affiliate. He was designated for assignment on September 1.[10] 2008 , he signed a minor league contract with an invitation to spring training to return to the Red Sox.[11]
On August 5, 2009 , he was called up by the Red Sox to bolster their undermanned bullpen. In October 2009, Traber was granted free agency.[12] [13]
Teaching career

He is currently the Head Varsity baseball Coach and a physics teacher at his former high school, El Segundo High School.[14]
