PHILADELPHIA (AP) - The Phillies acquired reliever Casey Fien from the Seattle Mariners for cash.

Fien was assigned to Triple-A Lehigh Valley. The right-handed reliever went 0-0 with a 15.00 ERA in six games for the Mariners and was sent outright to Triple-A Tacoma on May 3.

He is 17-17 with one save and a 4.29 ERA with Detroit, Minnesota, the Los Angeles Dodgers and the Mariners.
