Dodgers Acquire Veteran Pitcher Nick Ramirez from Yankees
The Los Angeles Dodgers have strengthened their bullpen by trading for left-handed pitcher Nick Ramirez, aiming to add depth and experience.
- Nick Ramirez, a 34-year-old left-handed pitcher, was traded to the Los Angeles Dodgers from the New York Yankees for cash considerations.
- Ramirez posted a 2.66 ERA and 1.23 WHIP in 32 appearances last season, marking a career resurgence.
- The Dodgers opened a 40-man roster spot for Ramirez by moving Brusdar Graterol to the 60-day injured list.
- Despite a solid 2023 season, Ramirez was a surprising cut from the Yankees, having been designated for assignment over the weekend.
- The trade is somewhat of a homecoming for Ramirez, who is from Anaheim and attended Cal State Fullerton.
