Sergio Romo Traded from Dodgers to Rays for PTBNL or Cash

Alec NathanJul 22, 2017

The Los Angeles Dodgers announced Saturday that they traded reliever Sergio Romo and cash considerations to the Tampa Bay Rays in exchange for a player to be named later or cash. 

Romo, 34, was designated for assignment by the Dodgers on Thursday. 

Romo signed a one-year, $3 million contract with the Dodgers prior to the 2017 season, but he struggled during his stint in Hollywood. 

In 25 innings over 30 appearances, Romo posted a career-worst 6.12 ERA and 1.40 WHIP along with 31 strikeouts and 12 walks. 

The Rays—who are in the thick of the wild-card race—will hope a change of scenery helps Romo revert to vintage form. 

Entering Saturday night's 4-3 loss to the Texas Rangers, the Rays ranked 11th in the American League with a bullpen ERA of 4.37.
