The Indians are taking a flier on the 24-year-old Velazquez (he turns 25 later this month). He is a versatile bench player who may eventually serve the role of utility man for Cleveland. For now he will head to Triple-A Columbus.

The Rays were able to secure a little more money for international signings with this trade. Velazquez spent some time in MLB this year but was not really needed due to Tampa Bay's depth in versatile infielders.

There is no fantasy impact to speak of here, as Velazquez does not have enough offensive weapons to play every day in Major League Baseball.
