According to ESPN, the full trade includes seven players. As part of the deal, the Dodgers acquired Koepch from the White Sox and utilityman Tommy Edman from the Cardinals. The Cardinals will receive Erick Fedde and Tommy Pham from the White Sox. The White Sox will receive at least three infield prospects from the Dodgers including Miguel Vargas, Alexander Albertus, and Jeral Perez.
Vargas is the 11th-ranked prospect in the Dodger’s system according to MLB Pipeline. The 18-year-old shortstop was also MLB Pipeline’s third-ranked prospect in the 2023 international class.
Kopech owns a 4.47 with nine saves in 43.2 innings out of the White Sox bullpen this season. There is a lot to like about Kopech’s skill set. His 30.9% strikeout rate ranks among the best in baseball. That is thanks in part to his 99 mph fastball that ranks in the MLB’s 99th percentile, while his opponent’s .204 expected batting average against him ranks in the MLB’s 89th percentile. Koepch also made headlines by throwing an immaculate inning against the Twins on July 10th. However his nearly 13% walk rate and 12% barrel percentage rank amongst the worst in baseball.
Koepch was once considered a top prospect in baseball when he was traded from the Red Sox as part of a package deal for Chris Sale. Unfortunately for the White Sox, the hard-throwing right-hander never materialized into the ace the front office envisioned. He underwent Tommy John surgery in 2018 which forced him to miss the entire 2019 season. He then opted out of the 2020 season for personal reasons before making his return to the mound in 2021.
He spent the bulk of his time in the White Sox bullpen in 2021, producing solid results. In 44 appearances he posted a 3.50 ERA and 13.4 strikeouts per nine innings. However, his 1.93 ERA during his four starts that year gave the White Sox hope that he could eventually turn into a starter long-term. Unfortunately, Kopech was never able to find consistency as a full-time starter. His best season in the White Sox rotation came in 2022, when posted a 3.54 ERA in 119.1 innings of work. But the following season he struggled to the tune of a 5.43 ERA in 129.1 innings and led the American League with 91 walks.
The Dodgers are hoping he can help give their bullpen a boost for the rest of this season. It is unlikely he will serve in a ninth-inning role like he did with the South Siders given his shaky track record.
