The Los Angeles Dodgers acquired reliever Alexis Díaz from the Cincinnati Reds to bolster their injury-depleted bullpen. Díaz, a former All-Star, will join the Dodgers in Arizona. The move comes as the Dodgers have five key right-handed relievers on the injured list, leading to the highest bullpen workload in the majors. In exchange, the Dodgers sent minor leaguer Mike Villani to Cincinnati and placed Evan Phillips on the 60-day IL. Díaz, whose brother is Mets closer Edwin Díaz, had a strong track record before a recent slump and hamstring injury.
