Indians acquired OF Jason Kubel and cash considerations from the Diamondbacks for a player to be named later or cash considerations. The D'Backs will pick up nearly all of the $2.5 million owed to Kubel, which includes next year's $1 million buyout. The 31-year-old batted just .220/.288/.324 for Arizona before being designated for assignment earlier this week. He'll see some time at designated hitter and the corner outfield spots against right-handed pitching.
