Cincinnati Reds set to acquire Gavin Lux from Los Angeles Dodgers

[Whitcomb Whitcomb]

Jeff Passan Johnny Bench Jersey.The Cincinnati Reds are finalizing a deal to acquire infielder Gavin Lux from the Los Angeles Dodgers,sources tell ESPN.Jeff Passan.His second most frequent position has been at short.In exchange for Lux,who’s in his second year of arbitration eligiblity and has team control through 2026,the Reds are sending LA their Competitive Balance Round A draft pick as well as Mike Sirota,their most recent 3rd round draft pick.Dodgers took Sirota out of high school,Reds took him in the third round last year Chicken Puppet 2025-01-06T23:07:47.291ZIt’s hard not to immediately suspect that the Reds have larger intentions for Matt McLain playing in the outfield than we otherwise may have thought with this move.It’s also safe to wonder what the hell the Reds are thinking altogether as Lux is a decent-ish defensive infielder who provides almost nothing on the bases and brings some of the least pop in the game to the plate Brent Suter Jersey.We’ll obviously have the ability to break this move down further as the rest of the offseason shakes out.For now,though,file this one in the very,extremely questionable file.
