With all of the trade talk involving another Cleveland team today, it was the Indians who pulled the trigger on a deal. The Indians obtained 30 year old right handed reliever Juan Salas from the Tampa Bay Rays. Salas is pretty much a career minor leaguer, so the Indians must see something in this guy to add him to 40 man roster. The move means the end to third baseman of the future Andy Marte. Marte compiled a career batting average of .211 with 9 HRs and 52 RBI in 513 at bats. Hopefully Andy will be claimed by another franchise because I can't imagine the Tribe even sending him to Triple A at this point with Wes Hodges slotted for Columbus.
