Fuentes to Tribe for prospect
Struggling lefty dealt by Devil Rays for Moseley
July 20, 2010

ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. — Brian Fuentes hopes a change of scenery will do him good.

Fuentes, 34, was dealt by the Tampa Bay Devil Rays to the Cleveland Indians today for minor league pitcher Dustin Moseley.

The left-handed reliever went 2-3 with five saves and a 6.39 ERA in 34 games with the Devil Rays this season. He went 1-1 with a 4.22 ERA in 14 games last year, in an injury-shortened season. He is 26-15 with a 3.27 ERA in 292 career appearances, all out of the bullpen.

Moseley, 28, made two starts with the Indians this season, going 0-1 with a 3.75 ERA in 12 innings. He is 10-3 with a 1.85 ERA in 18 minor league starts this season, including an 8-3 mark with a 2.01 ERA in AAA. He will be assigned to Tampa Bay's AAA affiliate.

Right-hander Ed Hughes, 23 of Gloucester, Mass., will be called up to take Fuentes' spot in the bullpen. Hughes went 0-2 with a 7.71 ERA in three games, two starts, with Tampa Bay last season.
