The Los Angeles Dodgers have recruited players for two consecutive days. It has recruited four players in the last month. It shows a strong will to fill even a small gap to win the World Series.
The Los Angeles Dodgers announced on Monday that it had hired Pittsburgh left-hander Jose Hernandez for cash. The Dodgers placed Ryan Braiser on the 60-day IL due to calf injury to register Hernandez on the 40-man roster. The Dodgers traded utility man Curban Vizio, who had lost ground in the Toronto Blue Jays on the previous day. The Toronto Blue Jays reportedly received Brayden Fisher from the Dodgers and some cash with Vizio.
Hernandez, whom the Dodgers brought in on the day, is a left-handed bullpen pitcher from the Dominican Republic. He signed a contract with the Dodgers at age 19 in 2016, but left in the 2022 Rule 5 draft to move to Pittsburgh. 동행복권파워볼
