Dodgers acquire right-hander Yu Darvish from Rangers

The league-leading Los Angeles Dodgers have acquired right-hander Yu Darvish from the Texas Rangers, according to Fox Sports.

The Dodgers landed possibly the biggest name right at the trade deadline. It was not immediately clear what the Rangers would receive.

The move came after the Dodgers acquired left-handed reliever Tony Watson from the Pirates.

Darvish is 6-9 with a 4.01 ERA his season, his worst in five years in the majors.

The Dodgers, who are awaiting ace Clayton Kershaw's return from a bad back, have the best record in the league at 74-31 as they seek their first World Series title since 1988.
