CLEVELAND -- The Indians today traded outfielder Ryan Spilborghs to the Texas Rangers for cash considerations.

Spilborghs, 32, has been assigned to the Rangers Class AAA team.

Spilborghs spent 11 years in the Colorado Rockies organization, including parts of seven seasons in the big leagues. He was released following last season and the Indians signed him to a minor league free agent contract in January with a non-roster invitation to spring training.

He was assigned to Class AAA Columbus and was hitting .250 for the Clippers at the time of the trade.

To replace Spilborghs, outfielder Ben Copeland was promoted to Columbus from Class AA Akron. The Clippers also added righthander Cole Cook from Class A Lake County.

The Indians and Rangers open a three-game series tonight at Progressive Field.
