Philadelphia Phillies traded LHP Austin Davis to Pittsburgh Pirates for Player To Be Named Later and cash. Joel Cesar sent to Phillies to complete trade, 9/20/2020 Cesar, a minor leaguer, was named on September 20, 2020 to complete the deal. Corrected against Baseball-Reference — MLB’s log left part of this deal out.

Trades made between 2020-08-17 and 2020-09-03 — the two weeks leading into the 2020deadline, plus the days right after for late-posted completions. The deadline itself moves: it sat at a fixed July 31, 4 p.m. ET for decades, and the 2022 CBA both pushed the cutoff to 6 p.m. ET and let the league float the date anywhere from July 28 to Aug. 3. Sourced from MLB’s official transaction log, which carries trade records back to 2009; where MLB logged only one side of a deal, that’s noted on the card.
