The Colorado Rockies have acquired Jair Jurrjens from the Cincinnati Reds in exchange for Minor League first baseman Harold Riggins.

Jurrjens, 28, signed a minor league deal with the Reds back in May that came with an $800,000 base salary upon making the Major Leagues.

The right-hander has thrown 34 1/3 innings with Triple-A Louisville, posting a 4.46 ERA with 7.1 K/9 and 3.4 BB/9.
