Marlins Sign P Donnelly

POSTED: 8:55 am PDT July 5, 2009

(Sports Network) - The Florida Marlins made a move to bolster their bullpen Sunday, signing free agent pitcher Brendan Donnelly.

Terms of the deal were not disclosed.

The 38-year-old Donnelly has yet to pitch in the majors in 2009 after appearing in 15 games for the Indians in 2008. He struggled mightily last season, allowing 13 runs in 13 2/3 innings pitched.

Donnelly, who celebrated his birthday Saturday, won a World Series with the Angels in 2002 in his rookie season. In his career with the Angels, Red Sox and Indians, he is 26-9 with a 3.12 earned run average in 319 games.

The club also placed pitcher Chris Leroux on the 15-day disabled list with right shoulder inflammation. The 25-year-old had no record with a 11.12 ERA in four games this season.
