Former Marshall pitcher Dan Straily, seen here pitching for the Cincinnati Reds, was traded to the Miami Marlins on Thursday for three minor leaguers.
MIAMI — The Miami Marlins gave up two of their top pitching prospects Thursday to acquire immediate help for the rotation.
Miami obtained right-hander Dan Straily from the Cincinnati Reds for three minor leaguers, a person familiar with the negotiations said. The person confirmed the trade to The Associated Press on condition of anonymity because it had not yet been announced.
The Reds acquired right-handers Luis Castillo and Austin Brice, both highly regarded prospects in Miami’s thin system.
