LOS ANGELES — The Dodgers have made another move to bolster their pitching depth, acquiring right-handed pitcher Noah Davis from the Boston Red Sox in exchange for cash considerations. To make room on the 40-man roster, the team has placed Emmet Sheehan on the 60-day injured list.

Davis Heads to Triple-A

Davis, 27, is expected to join the Oklahoma City Comets, the Dodgers’ Triple-A affiliate. Last season, he made nine appearances for the Colorado Rockies, where he logged 20.1 innings, allowing 13 runs while striking out 15.

During Spring Training with the Red Sox this year, Davis showed promise in four Grapefruit League outings, posting an impressive 0.86 WHIP and holding opponents to a .206 batting average over 9.1 innings with nine strikeouts.

Davis’ Journey to L.A.

A Southern California native, Davis originally played college ball at UC Santa Barbara before being selected by the Cincinnati Reds in the 11th round of the 2018 MLB Draft. He later joined the Rockies, where he spent parts of the past three seasons in the majors. Over 18 career big-league appearances, Davis has compiled a 7.71 ERA with an 0-4 record.

Now, the right-hander has a fresh opportunity in the Dodgers’ system, where he’ll look to refine his game and potentially earn a call-up to the big-league club later this season.

Looking Ahead

With Sheehan sidelined, the Dodgers continue to explore options for pitching depth, and Davis could become a key depth piece as the season unfolds. Keep an eye on his performance in Oklahoma City—he could be knocking on the door of the Dodgers’ rotation or bullpen before long.
