HAZELBAKER HEADS TO MINNESOTA

The Minnesota Twins acquired outfielder Jeremy Hazelbaker from the Tampa Bay Rays for cash.

What does it give the Minnesota Twins
Hazelbaker is a decent depth outfielder who could see action with the Twins down the stretch. He can play all three outfield positions, which gives Minnesota more options.

What does it give the Tampa Bay Rays
The Rays had recently designated Hazelbaker for assignment (he never made any appearances for Tampa Bay), so they at least got back a little cash here.

Fantasy impact
There is not much fantasy value here, since Hazelbaker is a 30-year-old journeyman who will likely come off the bench if he sticks with the Twins.
