The Los Angeles Dodgers have pulled off a rather huge trade with the Oakland Athletics, picking up ace starter Rich Hill and veteran outfielder Josh Reddick.
With Clayton Kershaw still sidelined to injury, the Dodgers needed to add another arm to the rotation. They get a player in Hill that might have very well been the best option on the trade block.
Hill is pitching to a 2.25 ERA and 1.09 WHIP with nearly 11 strikeouts per nine innings in 14 starts.
Final deal: Rich Hill and Josh Reddick to Dodgers with Grant Holmes, Frankie Montas and Jharel Cotton to A's. Physicals good. Deal is done. — Jeff Passan (@JeffPassan) August 1, 2016
