The ever-creative Los Angeles Dodgers front office completed yet another three-team trade on Thursday, assembling a six-player deal with the Chicago White Sox and Kansas City Royals. The Dodgers parted with Luis Avilan, Erick Mejia and Trevor Oaks in the deal.
Avilan was sent to the White Sox, while Mejia and Oaks are now with the Royals. In return, Los Angeles received left-handed relief pitcher Scott Alexander and Minor League infielder Jake Peter.
Oaks, 24, was selected by the Dodgers in the seventh round of the 2014 Draft. He advanced as far as Triple-A Oklahoma City, pitching for the organization’s top affiliate in each of the past two seasons.
