The Kansas City Royals announced the trade of 19-year-old minor league pitcher Cesar Espinal to the Milwaukee Brewers, representing a strategic move as he becomes their player to be named later. Espinal, who has spent his career in the Dominican Summer League, has shown promising statistics despite not being a top prospect. This trade is viewed as beneficial for the Brewers in acquiring potential talent for an unlikely roster spot. Meanwhile, Canha's debut performances have also raised spirits for the Royals with his productive start, alleviating any immediate concerns about the trade.
Espinal, a minor league righty, has been traded by the Royals to the Brewers, marking his second trade at just 19 years old.
Cesar Espinal, originally signed by the Orioles, hasn't emerged as a highly touted prospect yet, spending his career in the Dominican Summer League.
The trade, involving minimal risk for the Brewers, allows them to acquire an arm in exchange for a non-roster invitee who was unlikely to make the team.
Despite initial concerns, the Royals seem satisfied with Canha's early performance, showcasing strong offensive potential after a shaky start to the season.
