The Los Angeles Dodgers are calling up former Cincinnati Reds All-Star reliever Alexis Diaz after trading for him at the end of May.
The Dodgers and Brewers just can’t get enough of each other. Moments after the first pitch of Wednesday’s series finale between the two teams in Milwaukee, the Dodgers announced that they were trading minor league outfielder Steward Berroa to the Brewers in exchange for cash considerations.

The Los Angeles Dodgers traded with the Cincinnati Reds for closer Alexis Diaz in late May, and he had been pitching in the minor leagues until his call-up on Tuesday. New York Mets' closer Edwin Diaz,
Alcantara, who gave up nine hits and six runs over five innings and had his already-horrific ERA swell further to 7.22 on the season, has allowed 19 earned runs in his past 18 innings (9.50 ERA).
Former Cincinnati Reds closer Alexis Diaz is being called up by the Los Angeles Dodgers, according to Fabian Ardaya of The Athletic. The Reds traded Diaz to the Dodgers in May for minor league pitcher Mike Villani.
The Dodgers will first turn their attention to the trade deadline. But like last year, that search might lead them to rental starters only. For a more permanent upgrade, free agency might be the place to look.
