Last July the Los Angeles Dodgers completed a trade with the Cincinnati Reds to acquire Dylan Floro, Zach Neal and international signing bonus pool space in exchange for Minor League pitchers James Marinan and Aneurys Zabala.
It wasn’t the type of blockbuster deal that generates headlines. Most of the discussion centered around Floro returning to the Dodgers, who previously claimed him off waivers from the Chicago Cubs in August 2017. The right-hander went on to sign a Minor League contract with the Reds that winter.
But similar to their trade for Tony Cingrani in July 2017, Floro has emerged as a key member out of the bullpen for the Dodgers.
