KANSAS CITY — General manager Jerry Dipoto is getting that trading itch again. He made his second trade of the day on Sunday, acquiring reliever Ryan Garton and minor league catcher Mike Marjama from the Tampa Bay Rays. Seattle sent two minor league players — left-handed pitcher Anthony Misiewicz and infielder Luis Rengifo — and a player to be named later to complete the deal.
Garton was added to the 40-man roster and will likely report to Class AAA Tacoma. To make room, catcher Tuffy Gosewisch was designated for assignment.
The 27-year-old right-hander has appeared in seven games over three stints with the Rays, posting an 8.
