The Pittsburgh Pirates have acquired right-handed reliever Ron Marinaccio from the San Diego Padres, receiving international signing bonus pool considerations in return. Marinaccio, 31, has had a challenging season with a 4.79 ERA but brings a career 3.02 ERA over four seasons. To make room for him, the Pirates designated Dennis Santana for assignment following a recent altercation during a game against the Yankees. Santana expressed frustration over game speed rather than the incident itself.
