Mandatory Credit: Jim Rassol-Imagn Images The Los Angeles Dodgers acquired left-hander Jake Eder in a trade with the Washington Nationals on Wednesday for cash considerations.
Eder, 27, was designated for assignment by the Nationals on March 28 after he had a 2.70 ERA in three appearances (two starts) at spring training.
Eder has nine career major league relief appearances, including eight with the Los Angeles Angels last season when he had a 4.91 ERA. He made his major league debut with the Chicago White Sox in September of 2024.
To make room on the Dodgers' 40-man roster, right-hander Jake Cousins was transferred to the 60-day injured list. Cousins, 31, was signed to a major league deal on March 24 but is out until at least the middle of the season after undergoing Tommy John surgery in June.
