LOS ANGELES – The Los Angeles Dodgers traded right-hander Ross Strippling deal with the Toronto Blue Jays on Monday for the names of two players.
30, Strippling went 3-1 for Los Angeles with 5.61 ERA and 27 strikeouts in seven starts this season. Peve has spent his entire pro career with the Dodgers, breaking the main league roster in 2016 and earning an All-Star selection in 2018.
Strippling has long been heading to Toronto to join Dodgers starter Hyun-Jin Ryu, who has left a million 80 million free-agent deals in Se Fasen. Blue Jazz has dramatically boosted their pitching staff on deadlines with the addition of stripling, Robbie Ray and Taijuan Waker.
Despite Strippling being a stable, reliable hand, league-leading Dodgers have a wealth of rotation candidates even after a tremendous upheaval in pitching starting last season.
Behind the stars Clayton Kershaw and Walker Buhler, Dodgers will choose between Julio Urius, Alex Wood and promising youngsters Dustin May and Tony Gonsolin. Wood has only made one start this season due to shoulder inflammation, while Buhler will miss an upcoming start with blisters on his pitching arm in the injured list.
The Dodgers sent stripper and outfielder Jock Pederson almost to Los Angeles Angels earlier this year during the original spring training in the trade of infielder Louis Rangifo. The business was put on hold by Angels owner Art Moreno after protracted negotiations over the acquisition of Mukti Bates from Boston.
Toronto also acquired Jonathan Wheeler from Miami on a trade deadline.
