3 affordable trade targets for the Cleveland Indians that could improve the outfield

Exactly one month remains between now and MLB’s July 30th trade deadline and now, more than ever, the Cleveland Indians need outfield help. Desperately. Josh Naylor is the latest casualty of the Tribe’s injury plague, suffering a broken ankle after a collision with Ernie Clement on a fairly routine pop up in right field in Minnesota on June 27th.

In the very near term, Oscar Mercado was called up from Triple-A Columbus and will be given the first opportunity from within the organization to fill Naylor’s roster spot.
