LOS ANGELES _ Mookie Betts is officially a Los Angeles Dodger. It's done done. For real this time.
The Dodgers announced Monday that they acquired the superstar outfielder, left-handed pitcher David Price and cash from the Boston Red Sox for outfielder Alex Verdugo and two prospects _ shortstop Jeter Downs and catcher Connor Wong.
The announcement comes a day after the clubs agreed to a second variation of a trade that would send Betts and Price to Los Angeles.
The first version, a three-team agreement including the Minnesota Twins, leaked last Tuesday before the Red Sox pulled out once they evaluated pitcher Brusdor Graterol's medical records. Graterol was a prospect the Twins were going to send to Boston with the Dodgers sending pitcher Kenta Maeda to Minnesota.
Instead, Graterol, a hard-throwing right-hander, is headed to Los Angeles in exchange for Maeda and cash, according to people with knowledge of the situation. That deal hasn't been announced yet.
