Luis Cessa

Luis Cessa was traded to the Cincinnati Reds on Tuesday, alongside Justin Wilson.

Fantasy Impact

Cessa has posted a very impressive 2.82 ERA this season over 38.1 innings with 31 strikeouts. He figures to fit right into a mid-to-late inning relief role in the Reds bullpen.

Luis Cessa agreed to a one-year, $1.05 million contract with the Yankees, avoiding arbitration.

Fantasy Impact

Cessa had a solid 2020 campaign, posting a 3.32 ERA in over 20 innings of work. While not fantasy relevant, he figures to play a relatively large role in the Yankees' bullpen.

The Yankees activated Luis Cessa (COVID-19) off the injured list Wednesday morning.

Fantasy Impact

Cessa missed the first two weeks of the season following a positive COVID-19 test. He'll rejoin the team prior to Wednesday's doubleheader against the Phillies.

Luis Cessa (COVID-19) remains at the Yankees alternate training site.

Fantasy Impact

The good news is Cessa is getting ready to go. He threw a 40-pitch bullpen on Saturday and could be game ready this week. He's still unsure when he might rejoin the team, however.

Luis Cessa remains on the COVID-19 injured list and is not part of the Yankees' initial 30-man roster according to the team's website.

Fantasy Impact

Cessa returned to the team Saturday after clearing intake protocol, but he has yet to be removed from the injured list and is not part of the Opening Day bullpen. The right-hander threw a 31-pitch bullpen session Monday that reportedly went well, so he's likely close to being game-ready.
