Tanner Roark found out about his trade to A's while ordering at Arby's

Tanner Roark was one of many players across MLB who was traded to another team before Wednesday's trade deadline.

The A's acquired Roark from the Cincinnati Reds in exchange for prospect Jameson Hannah and cash considerations. And how did Roark find out he was heading to Oakland?

While he was ordering food at an Arby's, of course.

Arby's themselves responded to the news:

The 32-year-old righty has a 4.24 ERA with 108 strikeouts in 110.1 innings this season and boasts a 6-7 record as a member of the Reds.

We just really hope he got his food and was able to eat it peacefully. Well, as peacefully as he possibly can after hearing the news.
