Gavin Lux is headed to Cincinnati.

The Reds struck a deal to trade for the Los Angeles Dodgers infielder on Monday afternoon, according to ESPN’s Jeff Passan. In return, the Dodgers will receive a future draft pick and outfield prospect Mike Sirota.

The Dodgers have reportedly been working to find a trading partner for Lux, who drew interest from both the San Diego Padres and New York Yankees in recent weeks. The Dodgers signed Korean infielder Hyeseong Kim to a three-year deal earlier this month, too. Kim could easily slide in and take Lux’s spot in the lineup. Mookie Betts is also expected to move into the infield next season, and the team signed an extension with Tommy Edman in November. That left the Dodgers with plenty of options, so moving on from Lux felt inevitable.

Lux held a .251 batting average with 10 home runs and 50 RBI, both of which were career-highs, last season with the Dodgers. He has spent all six of his seasons in Major League Baseball with the franchise, who he has won a pair of World Series titles with. Lux had a hit and an RBI in their 4-1 series win over the Yankees, which gave the club its eighth World Series win. He missed the 2023 campaign while recovering from a torn ACL.

The 27-year-old is set to earn more than $2.7 million next season. He is set to hit free agency after the 2026 campaign.

The Reds went 77-85 last season and missed the playoffs for the fourth straight season. The team fired manager David Bell in September, too, and has since hired Terry Francona to replace him. Lux will now join star Elly De La Cruz in Cincinnati’s infield. The Reds traded second baseman Jonathan India earlier this offseason, too, so Lux could in theory take over at second — where he spent most of last season with the Dodgers.

The pair will now attempt to not only lead the Reds into the playoffs for what would be the first time in half of a decade, but to a postseason series win — which is something the franchise hasn’t seen since 1995.
