Just hours before the trade deadline, the St. Louis Cardinals traded outfielder Tommy Pham to the Tampa Bay Rays in exchange for three minor leaguers.
The Rays sent outfielder Justin Williams, LHP Genesis Carbrera and RHP Roel Ramirez to the Cardinals and will also receive international signing money.
Pham is batting .248 with 14 home runs and 41 RBI in 98 games this season. The outfielder will become arbitration eligible this offseason and is under team control through the 2021 season. The Rays are hoping Pham can add a little pop to their offense.
