INDIANS GET WELL-TRAVELLED AQUINO Wednesday, July 29, 2015
The Cleveland Indians acquired pitcher Jayson Aquino from the Pittsburgh Pirates for cash.
What does it give the Cleveland Guardians?
Aquino's journey to Cleveland began with the Colorado Rockies this season, then moved to Toronto and Pittsburgh. He is a much-travelled 22-year-old left-hander who is still in high Single-A ball, yet many teams seem to have significant interest in him. The Tribe are simply the latest.
What does it give the Pittsburgh Pirates?
For the Pirates, they're simply the latest team to cut bait with Aquino after giving him a look down on the farm. They'll receive cash as compensation, much like Toronto received when Pittsburgh acquired Aquino's services earlier this season.
Fantasy Impact
Aquino seems to have something that a lot of MLB teams like/want. Therefore, that alone should keep the lefty on the long-range fantasy radar.
