Red Sox start playoff push, get Cashner from O's

The Boston Red Sox have acquired right-hander Andrew Cashner from the Baltimore Orioles in exchange for minor leaguers Elio Prado and Noelberth Romero, the teams announced Saturday.

Boston, which is looking for a starter with Nathan Eovaldi slated to go to the bullpen when he comes off the injured list, also received cash considerations in the deal.

Red Sox president Dave Dombrowski said Cashner would start Tuesday against the Toronto Blue Jays.

The 32-year-old Cashner is 9-3 with a 3.83 ERA in 17 starts for the Orioles this season.
