The Los Angeles Dodgers acquired right-hander Will Klein in a trade with the Seattle Mariners on Monday in exchange for minor league left-hander Joe Jacques.
The Dodgers added Klein and right-hander Ryan Loutos to the active roster in advance of Monday’s series opener at home against the New York Mets, while right-hander Noah Davis was optioned to the minor leagues and right-hander Chris Stratton was designated for assignment.
Klein, 25, has eight career major league appearances, all last season for the Kansas City Royals and Oakland Athletics when he had an 11.05 ERA in 7 1/3 innings of relief. He had a 7.17 ERA in 22 appearances at Triple-A Tacoma this season.
Loutos, 26, was recalled after he had one appearance with the Dodgers earlier this season, when he gave up two runs in one inning. He had three appearances with the St. Louis Cardinals last season and has a career 5.40 ERA in 3 1/3 innings.
Davis, 28, had a 5.79 ERA in four relief appearances with the Dodgers this season, while Stratton, 34, had a 6.00 ERA in two relief appearances for Los Angeles.
Jacques, 30, is 2-1 with a 5.46 ERA and one save in 25 career games (one start) with the Boston Red Sox (2023-24) and Arizona Diamondbacks (2024).
Playing this season on a minor league deal, Jacques is 1-1 with a 6.04 ERA and three saves in 18 appearances with Triple-A Oklahoma City.
