PIRATES ACQUIRE CESAR IZTURIS

The Pittsburgh Pirates acquired infielder Cesar Izturis and cash
considerations from the Chicago Cubs on Thursday in exchange for a
player to be named. Izturis hit .246 with 11 doubles and eight RBI in
65 games with the Cubs this season while making 60 appearances
(48 starts) at shortstop. Izturis, 27, was a Gold Glove winner in 2004
and an All-Star in 2005 while with the Dodgers.
