The Phillies have traded Connor Brogdon, after being designated for assignment earlier in the week, to the Los Angeles Dodgers. The Phillies are receiving left-handed pitcher Benony Robles in return.
It's been a roller coaster ride for Brogdon in Philly. During the Phillies' 2022 World Series run, Brogdon sported a 2.08 postseason ERA, including four scoreless frames in the Fall Classic against Houston. In his last appearance for the Phillies on Monday against the Reds, he surrendered a game-winning 10th inning grand slam to Cincinnati's Spencer Steer.
As for who's coming back to Philly, Robles is a 23-year-old minor leaguer. Pitching in high-A ball in 2023 for the Great Lakes Loons, Robles made 33 appearances with a 3.86 ERA, picking up 12 saves along the way.
