The Los Angeles Dodgers traded Josh Sborz to the Texas Rangers in exchange for Minor League pitcher Jhan Zambrano. Sborz had been designated for assignment last week as the corresponding move to making the Trevor Bauer signing official.
The Dodgers face a similar dilemma for Justin Turner, as their 40-man roster remains full. Had Sborz cleared waivers, the Dodgers could have sent him outright to the Minors.
Sborz was drafted by the Dodgers out of the University of Virginia in the second round in 2015. He recently was named to the Virginia Baseball 2021 Hall of Fame Class.
