The Pirates
traded Cesar to the Phillies as the player to be named later in the Aug. 26 deal that sent
Austin Davis to Pittsburgh.
ANALYSIS
As expected, the deal for Davis fetched only a low-level minor-league prospect in return. Cesar, 24, finished the 2019 season at Double-A Altoona, logging a 3.76 ERA and 36 strikeouts in 38.1 innings.
