The Atlanta Braves added bullpen insurance in right-hander Chris Reitsma.

The Detroit Tigers have a new reliever, too.

The Braves traded two pitching prospects Friday for Reitsma, who filled every role on the Cincinnati Reds’ staff but never found his niche.

He’ll have one in Atlanta, which made two trades in less than 24 hours to upgrade a bullpen that was a major concern. Reitsma, 26, took over as the Reds’ closer after Scott Williamson was traded in July, and demonstrated he can finish games.

“He was an absolutely outstanding pitcher in the role he took on last year,” Braves general manager John Schuerholz said. “We tried hard to get him last year for our pennant run and again this winter. Our people evaluated him as one of the top guys in the business in the role he’s now doing.”

The Tigers and free-agent closer Ugueth Urbina agreed to a $3.5 million, one-year deal that reunited him with former Florida catcher Ivan Rodriguez.

Cleveland, Pittsburgh, Montreal, Minnesota and San Francisco were among several clubs that talked to Urbina, and he also attracted interest in Japan.
