Indians optioned INF Cord Phelps to Triple-A Columbus.
Phelps had the chance to earn significant playing time upon being called up nearly one month ago, but batted just .196/.315/.326 with one home run and five RBI over 55 plate appearances. Orlando Cabrera should get most of the look at second base, at least until Jason Kipnis arrives from the minors.

Cord Phelps hit a walkoff three-run homer in the 11th inning to give the Indians a 5-2 win over the Pirates Sunday.
Phelps added a double earlier in the game as he's now 3-for-21 since getting called up on June 8. The 2008 third-round pick is getting spot starts against righties, but won't get enough playing time to be viable in the vast majority of fantasy leagues.
