The Los Angeles Dodgers alleviated a logjam in their infield by trading Gavin Lux to the Cincinnati Reds for prospect Mike Sirota and a competitive balance pick in the 2025 MLB Draft.
World Series-winning second baseman Gavin Lux will be starting a new chapter of his career next season as he was traded to the Cincinnati Reds by the Los Angeles Dodgers earlier this January.
After the Dodgers came out of nowhere to sign KBO star Hyeseong Kim, Gavin Lux's departure from the team when LA made a trade with the Reds felt pretty inevitable. Kim is a defensive jack-of-all-trades, and though it's unclear how his bat will translate from KBO, Lux's defense and his early-season performance at the plate left a lot to be desired.
Gavin Lux shared a heartfelt farewell message to the Dodgers as he says goodbye to Los Angeles following his trade to the Reds.
He won a World Series title -- his second -- with the Los Angeles Dodgers, was traded to the Cincinnati Reds and he's come back home to Kenosha to give back to the community and his alma mater Indian Trail - all in the last three months.
The Cincinnati Reds continue their busy January. After trading for Gavin Lux and signing Austin Hays, Robert Murray reports that the Reds have acquired lefty relief pitcher Taylor Rogers from the Giants in exchange for Braxton Roxby.
The Cincinnati Reds are making a notable addition to their outfield, as they have reached an agreement with Austin Hays on a one-year, $5 million contract, according to Ken Rosenthal of The Athletic. The deal includes $1 million in incentives as well.
The Cincinnati Reds are known for their star shortstop Elly De La Cruz, but the team overall hasn’t done well in recent years. While the Reds have a talented roster, they missed the postseason for a fourth straight year in 2024 after finishing with a record of 77-85 and coming in fourth in the National League Central.
The Los Angeles Dodgers have an update on a veteran infielder, a Gavin Lux statement about the team, and some bad Kiké Hernández news.
