Reports: Dodgers set to acquire LHP Zach Penrod from Red Sox

The Los Angeles Dodgers are set to acquire left-hander Zach Penrod from the Boston Red Sox, multiple outlets reported Friday.
Penrod, 28, has just seven games of major league experience, all with the Red Sox in relief last season. He had a 2.25 ERA in four innings.
After Boston traded Rafael Devers to the San Francisco Giants last week, while acquiring right-hander Jordan Hicks and left-hander Kyle Harrison, Penrod was designated for assignment to open a spot on the 40-man roster.
In six outings (two starts) with Triple-A Worcester this season, Penrod was 0-1 with a 4.91 ERA. He also had a scoreless inning with the Red Sox’s Florida Complex League club.
Penrod, who was not drafted, signed as a free agent with the Texas Rangers in 2018 out of Northwestern Nazarene in Nampa, Idaho, and had two seasons in the independent Pioneer League before signing with the Red Sox in 2023.
