Ryan Brasier’s time with the Dodgers officially ended on Tuesday, with the veteran reliever being traded to the Chicago Cubs less than a week after being designated for assignment.

Brasier, 37, was DFA’d by the Dodgers last week in order to make room on their 40-man roster for newly signed veteran reliever Kirby Yates.

The Dodgers had reportedly been shopping Brasier on the trade market before then, and finally found a partner Friday in the Cubs, who acquired the eight-year veteran after a 2024 season in which he had a 3.54 ERA but also missed significant time with a calf injury.

The Dodgers also sent the Cubs cash considerations, which will cover some of the $4.5 million Brasier is due this season.

In return, the Dodgers will either receive a player to be named or their own cash considerations.

Brasier had a 1.89 ERA over his two seasons with the Dodgers, including a dominant 0.70 mark in 39 appearances in 2023 that led to a two-year contract extension last year. However, he became the odd man out in the team's bullpen after the Dodgers' recent signings of Yates and left-hander Tanner Scott.
