Indians Acquire Reliever Nick Wittgren in Deal with Miami Marlins

The Indians revamped bullpen added another name on Monday, as the team in a deal with the Miami Marlins acquired righty Nick Wittgren in exchange for right-handed pitcher Jordan Milbrath.

Wittgren made 32 appearances for Miami last season, posting an impressive ERA of 2.94. He also last season pitched for Triple-A New Orleans.

The 27-year-old owns a career Major League ERA of 3.60 over 118 outings with Miami since the 2016 season.

The Indians will need to stockpile relievers as they look to figure out the state of their bullpen with spring training closing in.
