Pirates trade C. Wilson to Mariners

Club also acquires two Minor Leaguers from Indians

By Todd Krise / MLB.com | 07/10/08 8:49 PM ET

PITTSBURGH -- The Pirates traded Minor League first baseman Craig Wilson to the Mariners for a player to be named on Thursday.

Wilson, who played for the Pirates from 2001-06, signed a Minor League contract with Pittsburgh on April 8. He hit .230 with 10 home runs and 27 RBIs for Triple-A Indianapolis this season.

The trade was one of two Minor League transactions the Bucs pulled off on Thursday.

The Pirates also acquired right-hander Dan Reichert and infielder/outfielder Ryan Mulhern from the Indians for cash considerations. Both players will be assigned to Triple-A Indianapolis.
