The New York Yankees have acquired left-handed reliever Victor Gonzalez and infielder Jorbit Vivas from the Los Angeles Dodgers in exchange for shortstop Trey Sweeney.
The move opens two spots on Los Angeles' 40-man roster for Ohtani and Joe Kelly, whose deals were finalized on Monday.
Gonzalez, 28, could help fill a void in the Yanks' bullpen created by the potential departure of free agent Wandy Peralta.
