JOE MARTINEZ TO CLEVELAND
The Cleveland Indians acquired pitcher Joe Martinez from the Pittsburgh Pirates for cash.
What does it give the Cleveland Guardians
Martinez is a decent pitcher with a lot of versatility in his right arm, so he stands a good chance of winning a job on the Indians' staff in 2011.
What does it give the Pittsburgh Pirates
The Pirates had already designated Martinez for assignment, so they took whatever deal they could get for him here. The return won't be much.
