ATLANTA -- Manager Don Mattingly will wait until Friday to announce how the Miami Marlins will use newly acquired closer Fernando Rodney.Making a push to stay near the top of the NL wild-card race, the Marlins traded a minor league pitcher to get Rodney from San Diego on Thursday.Mattingly has yet to express a lack of faith in closer A.J. Ramos, who has converted straight 33 saves opportunities since last season, so it seems likely he would stay in that role for the immediate future.But Mattingly wouldnt say for sure. Rodney, whose 253 career saves are fifth-most among active pitchers, is expected to join the team on Friday in Atlanta.Right now, until I get a chance to talk to Fernando, theres nothing I want to talk about role-wise publicly, Mattingly said. But well make sure everybody knows whats going on and then well move on.Rodney has been outstanding this year, converting 17-of-17 saves chances with a 0.31 ERA in 28 games. The Marlins are his seventh team overall and sixth since 2011.Ramos has worked as a solid setup man for the Marlins in the past and might have begun this season in that role again if Carter Capps hadnt had a season-ending elbow injury in spring training.Mattingly spoke to Ramos before Thursdays game against the Braves, but the manager wouldnt say how they discussed his role. Regardless, Mattingly sees Rodneys addition as a win-win situation.The Marlins began Thursday with a half-game lead over two teams in the NL wild-card standings.This is another piece to a really good bullpen right now, he said. Our guys at the back end have been very good. This just makes us stronger.Miami sent right-hander Chris Paddack to the Padres. Paddack, an eighth-round draft pick last year, went 2-0 with a 0.95 ERA in six starts this year for Class A Greensboro.The Marlins coveted Rodney for his experience and the depth he brings to a bullpen that ranks sixth in the NL and 13th overall with a 3.78 ERA.We look at it like weve added a guy whos been rolling this year, has a history of being really good late in games, and were looking forward to adding that piece to our pen, Mattingly said.Assistant general manager Michael Berger said Marlins president of baseball operations Mike Hill started talking trade with San Diego last week.The ability to access anybody right now is challenging to say the least, Berger said. A lot of hard work went into it and in the end we got better. It was already a strength for this club. Its one man stronger.Rodneys salary is team-friendly. His pays $1.6 million this year and includes a team option for next season at $2 million. John Stones Jersey . - The Washington Redskins have cut defensive lineman Adam Carriker and punter Sav Rocca.

Gary Cahill Jersey .Y. -- Sabres forward Drew Stafford has witnessed plenty of turmoil during his eight seasons in Buffalo.ATTLEBORO, Mass. -- New court records say that an associate of Aaron Hernandez told police the former New England Patriot put guns in a box in his basement after returning from the industrial park where his friend was fatally shot. An affidavit released by Attleboro District Court says Carlos Ortiz told investigators Hernandez put firearms in the black box after Odin Lloyds killing. The document indicates one was a small gun Ortiz handed Hernandez after they returned home with another associate, Ernest Wallace. Ortiz said he earlier saw Hernandez with an additional "large handgun." Hernandez has pleaded not guilty to murder in the death of Lloyd, a 27-year-old Boston semi-professional football player whose body was found June 17 about a mile from Hernandezs North Attleborough, Mass., home. His attorneys have said the case against him is circumstantial and they are confident he will be exonerated. Authorities believe Lloyd was killed with a .45-calibre Glock, which hasnt been recovered. Prosecutors say video surveillance from Hernandezs home before and after the killing shows him holding a gun that appears to be a Glock. Police divers have been searching this week in a lake in Bristol, Conn., Hernandezs hometown. Authorities have declined to comment on the search, but havee confirmed it is linked to the investigation.dddddddddddd Prosecutors have not said who fired the fatal shots. But court records released in Florida say Ortiz told investigators Wallace said it was Hernandez. The new documents released in Massachusetts indicate authorities seized a cellphone and credit and bank cards from a relative of Hernandez, identified as Tanya Singleton-Valderamma, of Bristol. Ortiz told investigators he and Wallace drove to Bristol after Lloyds killing and that he was dropped off at Singleton-Valderammas house, according to the affidavit. Ortiz said he discussed Lloyds killing with her. The records say that Singleton-Valderamma later purchased with a credit card, under a previous name, a Greyhound ticket from Macon, Ga., to Miami, Fla., and that Wallace travelled on a bus between those two points. He later turned himself in in Miramar, Fla., where his parents live, and is being held in Massachusetts on a charge of accessory to murder after the fact. The affidavit says it is not known how Wallace travelled from Connecticut to Georgia. Ortiz is facing a gun charge in connection with the case. Both Ortiz and Wallace have pleaded not guilty. Hernandez is being held without bail and is next due in court on Aug. 22 for a probable cause hearing.
