The Indians and Devil Rays have pulled off a deal in which top prospects were exchanged.
The Indians Receive: CL Jannio Gutierrez(AAA) SP Ron Smith(AA) New York Yankees 2nd Round Pick
The Devil Rays Receive: OF Franklin Gutierrez(AAA) MIF Francisco Salas(AAA)
The Indians recent trade for Jesus Cota made it possible to deal Franklin, and with the opportunity to get a future closer the deal was to good to pass up.

The Rays confirm and welcome another star Gutierrez player to our squad, along with a nice MIF bat in Salas. I would also like to thank the Indians for doing such a quick deal!
