A former Dodgers prospect traded at last year's deadline was promoted to his new team's starting rotation.
The Los Angeles Dodgers were active during the 2023 trade deadline. They acquired utility players Kiké Hernández and Amed Rosario in two separate trades, and then made a larger deal with the Chicago White Sox for pitchers Lance Lynn and Joe Kelly. While Lynn was solid in the regular season, he flamed out in the potseason. Kelly missed most of the second half of the year with an injury, re-signed with the Dodgers in the offseason, and is currently on the injured list again.
Leasure, 25, has made 21 MLB appearances for the White Sox this season, and has a 2.29 ERA across his 19.2 innings. As for Nastrini, he was officially promoted to the White Sox rotation. "We’ve had many conversations with him. He should feel comfortable enough to know he’s a big part of the future," Grifol said to reporters. "One start is not going to make or break his career here."
