Skubal to Dodgers, Peralta to Rays as MLB Teams Add Pitching at Trade Deadline

The two-time Cy Young winner joins a Dodgers rotation with a 3.36 ERA, while Peralta bolsters the Rays ahead of Monday's 6 p.m. EDT deadline.

  • On Saturday, the Los Angeles Dodgers acquired two-time Cy Young Award winner Tarik Skubal, adding the star pitcher to a rotation featuring Shohei Ohtani, Yoshinobu Yamamoto, and Mookie Betts.
  • Aiming to bolster their rotation, the Tampa Bay Rays agreed to trade for right-hander Freddy Peralta from the New York Mets, holding the best record in the American League at 65-45.
  • As the Major League Baseball trade deadline approaches on Monday, other teams shifted rosters, with the Chicago White Sox acquiring right-hander Luis Castillo and the Atlanta Braves adding outfielder Lane Thomas.
  • In exchange for Peralta, the Mets received three minor leaguers, including outfielder Aidan Smith, while the Dodgers integrated Skubal into a pitching staff that led the majors with a 3.36 ERA.
  • Other enticing options still remain available before the deadline, including San Diego Padres closer Mason Miller, San Francisco Giants second baseman Luis Arraez, and Toronto Blue Jays outfielder Daulton Varsho.
