MIAMI (AP) -Catcher Ronny Paulino has been traded for the second time in 24 hours and the third time since December, and he’s now with the Florida Marlins.
The San Francisco Giants sent Paulino to Florida for minor-league right-handed pitcher Hector Correa. The deal was announced Saturday after Paulino was traded Friday night to the Giants from the Philadelphia Phillies for left-handed pitcher Jack Taschner.
Paulino is expected to share playing time with John Baker. Paulino was traded to the Phillies from Pittsburgh last Dec. 10 for catcher Jason Jaramillo. He had spent his entire career with the Pirates and hit .212 last year while being limited to 40 games because of a sprained ankle.
