Xavier Cedeno was one of three players acquired by the Milwaukee Brewers on the August 31st waiver trade deadline. Other deals also included pitcher Gio Gonzalez from the Nationals and outfielder Curtis Granderson from the Toronto Blue Jays.
In order to get Cedeno, Milwaukee had to give up 19-year-old outfielder, Bryan Connell and 22-year-old pitcher, Johan Dominguez. Connell spent the 2018 season playing in the Pioneer League for the Helena Brewers. Dominguez was also at the lowest level, but in the Arizona League.
