The Boston Red Sox acquired left-hander James Paxton from the Los Angeles Dodgers for minor league infielder Moises Bolivar on Friday, attempting to fortify their rotation as they chase a playoff spot in a wide-open American League landscape.
The deal for Paxton, 35, comes after Los Angeles designated him for assignment Monday. Paxton had thrown 89⅓ innings of 4.43 ERA ball over 18 starts, helping stabilize an injury-riddled rotation as he\'d done in 2023 with Boston.
