Description
With the Aug. 1 MLB traded deadline just over 24 hours away, the Cleveland Guardians have made another significant move.
The team confirmed Monday it has traded right-handed starting pitcher Aaron Civale to the Tampa Bay Rays for first baseman Kyle Manzardo, one of the top prospects in the game. Marc Topkin of the Tampa Bay Times was the first to report the news.
"Dating back to last season, it's been a great point of emphasis for us to try to add offensive players to our major league team and the upper levels of our minor league system," Guardians President Chris Antonetti told the media after the deal was announced. "We felt this is a unique opportunity to be able to acquire someone like Kyle and bring him into the organization."
