CHICAGO, ILLINOIS - SEPTEMBER 12: Craig Kimbrel #46 of the Chicago White Sox pitches the 9th inning against the Boston Red Sox at Guaranteed Rate Field on September 12, 2021 in Chicago, Illinois. The White Sox defeated the Red Sox 2-1.

LOS ANGELES (AP) — The Los Angeles Dodgers have acquired eight-time All-Star reliever Craig Kimbrel from the Chicago White Sox in exchange for outfielder AJ Pollock.

Kimbrel was 4-5 with 24 saves in a combined 63 games with the Chicago Cubs and White Sox last season.

The Cubs shipped him across town at midseason in exchange for Codi Heaur and Nick Madrigal.

Kimbrel was 2-2 with the White Sox with one save in 24 games.

The right-hander was the NL Rookie of the Year in 2011.

Pollock hit .282 with 65 home runs and 199 RBIs in three seasons with the Dodgers.
