Rest-of-Season Projections
Signs minors deal with Royals
Cessa signed a minor-league contract with the Royals on Saturday.
ANALYSIS
Cessa appeared in seven games at the major-league level with the Reds early last season, posting a hefty 9.00 ERA and 2.23 WHIP over 26 innings. He also spent time with the Rockies' and Nationals' Triple-A affiliates, but he was released after putting up similar numbers. Cessa will now get another chance with the Royals, but he will likely have to prove himself in the minors before potentially returning to the big leagues.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Unfavorable environment
Cessa, entering his second full season with the Reds, pitches in one of the most hitter-friendly ballparks in MLB. Batters mashed 150 home runs in Cincinnati last season, easily the most in the league.
ANALYSIS
Cessa is currently favored for a rotation spot, despite struggling to a 4.57 ERA through 80.2 innings in a hybrid role for the Reds last season. In two seasons prior, Cessa logged a 2.71 ERA across 86.1 innings, but his home ballpark will likely impede his ability to produce a bounce-back campaign.

2021
2019
2018
2017
2016
Cessa began last season in the mix for saves for the Reds and ended the year in the rotation. He missed bats at less than a 20 percent rate in both roles but did post a 3.65 ERA in seven September/October starts. Cessa gets a decent number of ground balls and that rate has been climbing the last two seasons at right around 50 percent. It gives him a better chance at success given the lack of swings and misses, but at Great American Ball Park the margin for error is slim. Cessa might get another opportunity to start again in 2023, but that says more about the Reds' lack of options than it does the right-hander's ability.
