Dodgers trade with Mariners to acquire Tyler Gough

"Ortiz had been part of the Dodgers organization since signing as an international free agent out of the Dominican Republic on June 2, 2017. He came stateside the following year and began a steady climb up the Minor League ranks after pitching for the Dodgers' Arizona League rookie affiliate in 2018. Though, he missed the 2022 and 2023 seasons. Ortiz spent all of last season with Single-A Rancho Cucamonga, where he went 2-0 with a 0.82 ERA and 1.36 WHIP in six games."

"Ortiz began this year with High-A Great Lakes and went 1-2 with a 3.74 ERA and three saves across 18 appearances before earning a promotion to Double-A Tulsa. Upon joining the Drillers, the southpaw pitched to a 1.69 ERA and was 3-0 with one save in 15 games. Ortiz was promoted for a second time this year on Aug. 12 and went on to finish the season with Triple-A Oklahoma City."

"He went 1-0 with a 2.76 ERA, 1.22 WHIP and one save in 15 games (one start) for the Comets. Overall in his Minor League career, the 25-year-old is 17-12 with a 3.48 ERA in 99 games (41 starts) across six seasons. The Dodgers recently added Ortiz to their 40-man roster as part of a flurry of moves that included removing Tony Gonsolin and Michael Grove. Both right-handers have since gone on to become free agents."

The Dodgers traded Robinson Ortiz to the Seattle Mariners in exchange for pitcher Tyler Gough. Ortiz signed as an international free agent from the Dominican Republic on June 2, 2017, and advanced through the Dodgers' Minor League system after pitching for the Arizona League rookie affiliate in 2018. He missed the 2022 and 2023 seasons, spent 2023 with Single-A Rancho Cucamonga (2-0, 0.82 ERA, 1.36 WHIP), and in 2024 moved from High-A Great Lakes to Double-A Tulsa and then Triple-A Oklahoma City with solid reliever numbers. Ortiz is 17-12 with a 3.48 ERA in 99 minor-league games and was added to the Dodgers' 40-man roster. Gough, a San Diego native drafted in 2012, pitched for Modesto and posted a 7-4 record with a 2.23 ERA in 2024.
