GLENDALE, Ariz. — The Los Angeles Dodgers have traded veteran left-hander Vidal Nuno to the Baltimore Orioles for minor league right-hander Ryan Moseley.

The clubs announced the deal Sunday.

Nuno never pitched for the Dodgers, who acquired him from Seattle last November in a trade for catcher Carlos Ruiz.

Nuno is 5-20 with a 4.02 ERA in 126 big-league appearances with the Yankees, Diamondbacks and Mariners. He signed a $1.25 million, one-year deal in January.

The 22-year-old Moseley made a solid pro debut last season at Single-A Aberdeen. He was Baltimore’s eighth-round pick from Texas Tech in 2016.

The Dodgers needed to clear a spot on their 40-man roster before announcing the signing of veteran outfielder Franklin Gutierrez, who was seen at their spring training complex in Arizona earlier Sunday.
