Indians deal Shoppach to Rays: The Indians have traded catcher Kelly Shoppach to the Rays for a player to be determined. Shoppach's departure could make Lou Marson, acquired in the deal that sent pitcher Cliff Lee to Philadelphia, Cleveland's starter behind the plate. It will also give highly touted prospect Carlos Santana a chance of making the Indians roster. The Indians will complete the trade with Tampa Bay before Dec. 20. "Kelly's a guy who has great talent and the ability to be a complete catcher," Indians GM Mark Shapiro said. "He calls a good game, he throws well and, obviously, he hits for power. I know he strikes out a lot, but he's got great power. The more contact he makes the more a run producer he will be."

Fantasy Analysis

After Shoppach filled in for an injured Victor Martinez and led AL catchers with 21 homers in 2008, the Indians were expecting big things from him last season. However, he batted just .214 with 12 homers and 40 RBI in 89 games. He struck out 89 times in 271 at-bats. There is legit pop in his bat, but it is likely the Rays have a time-share behind the plate with Dioner Navarro. Both have their pluses and minuses and each's presence will keep the other from being useful in most mixed leagues.
