The Tampa Bay Rays acquired Cleveland Indians infielder/outfielder Rob Refsnyder for Cash Considerations this afternoon. This comes less than a day after the Indians completed its Opening Day roster by selecting outfielder Brandon Guyer over Refsnyder.
A versatile fielder with time logged everywhere except CF, SS, P, and C, Refsnyder struggled at the plate this spring. He slashed a meager .191/.298/.362 in 58 plate appearances. He previously played in the regular season for the Yankees and Blue Jays, where his numbers were not much better.
With Cash Considerations, the Indians receive a bit of an enigma.
