The Chicago Cubs have acquired designated hitter Jose Martinez from the Tampa Bay Rays in exchange for a combination of players to be named later or cash considerations.

Chicago had been searching for a right-handed bat in the days leading up to Monday's trade deadline.

Martinez has hit .239 with two homers, 10 RBIs and a .717 OPS while bouncing between designated hitter (13 games) and first base (six) for the Rays.
