Baseball: Reds acquire reliever Marshall from Cubs

?

NEW YORK: The Cincinnati Reds, seeking to bolster their bullpen, have acquired reliever Sean Marshall from the Chicago Cubs as part of a four-player trade, the National League team said yesterday.

Cincinnati sent pitcher Travis Wood, outfielder Dave Sappelt and minor league infielder Ronald Torreyes to Chicago.

Marshall posted a 6-6 record and 2.26 earned run average and had five saves in 78 relief appearances for the Cubs last season.

?Sean has been one of the best and most durable relievers in baseball the last couple of seasons,? Reds General Manager Walt Jocketty said in a statement. ?He will be a solid addition to what we think already is a strong bullpen.?

Sappelt, 24, hit .243 in 38 appearances for the Reds.
