SEATTLE (AP) - The Seattle Mariners have acquired shortstop Jack Wilson and pitcher Ian Snell from the Pittsburgh Pirates for shortstop Ronny Cedeno, Triple-A catcher Jeff Clement and three minor league pitchers.
Mariners general manager Jack Zduriencik says he made Wednesday’s trade to get the 31-year-old Wilson.
Cedeno was acquired in the offseason from the Chicago Cubs. He struggled after Seattle gave him its shortstop job by trading Yuniesky Betancourt to Kansas City this month. Cedeno is hitless in his last 26 at-bats.
Pittsburgh also gets minor league right-handed pitchers Nathan Adcock, Brett Lorin and Aaron Pribanic.
