The Atlanta Braves acquired relief pitcher Anthony Swarzak from the Seattle Mariners in exchange for a pair of relievers -- injured Arodys Vizcaino and Jesse Biddle.
Seattle will also send about $2 million to Atlanta to balance out the finances, according to Jon Heyman of the MLB Network.
Swarzak, 33, is 2-2 with a 5.27 ERA this season, giving up six home runs in 13 2/2 innings in his first season with the Mariners. The right-hander has appeared in 10 major league seasons, with a 25-34 record and 4.33 ERA, spanning 601 1/3 innings.
He signed a two-year, $14-million contract with the New York Mets on Dec.
