The Los Angeles Dodgers have made a big move to bolster their pitching staff, acquiring Lance Lynn and Joe Kelly in a trade with the Chicago White Sox.
Lance Lynn is a veteran right-handed pitcher who has been a reliable starter for the past several seasons. He has a career record of 85-60 with an ERA of 3.50 and 1,067 strikeouts. He was an All-Star in 2012 and has been a consistent presence in the rotation for the White Sox over the past two seasons.
Joe Kelly is a right-handed reliever who has been a key part of the White Sox bullpen since joining the team in 2018. He has a career record of 20-19 with an ERA of 3.76 and 441 strikeouts. He has also been an effective closer, recording 17 saves in his career.
The Dodgers are hoping that the addition of Lynn and Kelly will help them make a deep run in the playoffs this season. Both pitchers have experience in the postseason and could be valuable assets for the Dodgers as they look to make a championship run.
The trade is a win-win for both teams, as the White Sox get some young prospects in return, while the Dodgers get two experienced pitchers who can help them make a deep playoff run. It’s an exciting move for both teams and one that could have a big impact on the postseason race.
