The Yankees dealt left-hander Justin Wilson to the Tigers for a pair of pitching prospects, right-handers Luis Cessa and Chad Green, on Wednesday.

New York got Detroit’s No. 6 and No. 19 prospects in exchange for the 28-year-old Wilson, who was 5-0 with a 3.10 ERA in 74 appearances this past season.
General manager Brian Cashman acknowledged earlier on Wednesday that he would be willing to discuss Wilson—who excelled as the Yankees’ seventh-inning man last year, setting up for Dellin Betances and Andrew Miller—as a trade chip.
