Dodgers acquire Peralta from Rays

Los Angeles, CA (SportsNetwork.com) – The Los Angeles Dodgers have acquired right-handed pitcher Joel Peralta and left-handed pitcher Adam Liberatore from the Tampa Bay Rays in exchange for right-handed pitchers Jose Dominguez and Greg Harris.

The 38-year-old Peralta had been a part of the Rays’ bullpen over the past four seasons, compiling an 11-22 record in 296 games over that span. Over his 10-year career, Peralta owns a 16-33 record with a 3.92 ERA in 556 games as a reliever for the Rays, Nationals, Rockies, Royals and Angels.

Liberatore has spent his last two seasons at Triple-A Durham.
