Dodgers Acquire Pitcher Connor Brogdon from Phillies

The trade involves minor league lefty Benony Robles going to Philadelphia, marking a significant move for both teams.

Los Angeles Dodgers acquired right-handed pitcher Connor Brogdon from the Philadelphia Phillies in exchange for left-handed minor league pitcher Benony Robles.
Brogdon, designated for assignment earlier this week, joins the Dodgers after allowing six runs over two innings in three appearances for the Phillies this season.
Robles, a 23-year-old left-hander, has shown potential with a mid-to-high 90s fastball and a mix of secondary pitches but has struggled with control.
The Dodgers also recalled right-hander Gus Varland and designated right-hander Dinelson Lamet for assignment in other related moves.
Brogdon's acquisition follows a period of struggle, with a drop in velocity and control issues noted since his 2022 World Series performance.
