Red Sox acquire pitcher
10:15 PM EDT on Monday, October 15, 2007
CLEVELAND -- Just because the Red Sox are playing in the postseason doesn't mean management isn't still looking for players.
Boston claimed left-hander Jay Marshall off waivers from the Oakland Athletics this afternoon. The 24-year-old has been added to the Sox' 40-man roster. To make room for Marshall, the Red Sox designated left-hander Daniel Haigwood for assignment.
Marshall, who is playing in the Arizona Fall League, was 1-2 with a 6.43 ERA in 51 relief appearances for the A's this season, his first in the majors.
Haigwood was acquired from the Texas Rangers in April 2007 and was 3-5, 5.74 in 17 games (16 starts) for Double-A Portland this season.
