The Yankees today announced they have acquired right-handed pitcher Shawn Kelley from the  Mariners in exchange for minor league outfielder Abraham Almonte.
 
Kelley, 28, went 2-4 and posted a 3.25 ERA in 47 appearances over three stints with Seattle in 2012, averaging more than one strikeout per inning.
 
Originally selected in the 13th round of the First-Year Player draft by Seattle, Kelley has a 10-9 career record with a 3.52 ERA over parts of four Major League seasons with the Mariners.
 
In a corresponding roster move, 3B Alex Rodriguez has been placed on the 60-day disabled list.
