Martin, 36, is a relief pitcher with a 4.31 ERA this season. In seven MLB seasons, he has a 4.10 ERA and 227 strikeouts.
The Dodgers are gearing up for another run at the World Series by adding arms to their bullpen. They currently have the sixth-highest bullpen ERA at 3.37, so the move improves one of their strengths.
McKinstry, 27, has a .091 batting average with one home run and two RBIs. He has played in three different seasons with the Dodgers, batting .210 for his career.
Chicago has a 41-58 record and are currently going through a rebuild.
