The New York Mets traded for their second pitcher in as many days, acquiring left-hander Dave Williams from the Cincinnati Reds on Thursday for a minor leaguer.

The Reds, who designated Williams for assignment on Saturday, also sent an undisclosed amount of cash to the Mets as part of the deal. Cincinnati got right-hander Robert Manuel in the deal, as well, and assigned him to Single-A Dayton.
