"The Pirates acquired San Diego Padres outfielder Ryan Ludwick before Sunday's trade deadline in exchange for a player to be named later or cash.

The Pirates reportedly had interest in Ludwick for a while, but a trade to the Cleveland Indians looked more likely earlier Sunday. As the deadline approached, the Pirates again got involved, according to Yahoo Sports.

Ludwick, 33, was hitting .238 for the Padres this season with 11 home runs and 64 RBIs. He hit .314 in May, but the production dropped as the season progressed and he hit .172 in July."
