Hanley Ramirez dealt to Dodgers

[Auggie]

The Los Angeles Dodgers added an impact bat for their postseason push early Wednesday morning, acquiring star infielder Hanley Ramirez in a four-player trade with the Miami Marlins.

It was the second multiplayer trade in less than 48 hours for the Marlins, who have begun a July fire sale after disappointing through the first four months of this season.

The Dodgers expect Ramirez to be in St. Louis with them Wednesday night. He will wear No. 13 with the Dodgers.

The Dodgers also acquired left-handed reliever Randy Choate from Miami for starter Nate Eovaldi and minor league right-hander Scott McGough.

3. I guess we Red Sox fans were being faked out with the stories

that Ramirez was being pursued after seeing what little Dodgers were able to part with to get him. I am beginning to believe that the Sox would really like to do nothing.
