ANAHEIM, Calif.—The Los Angeles Angels acquired right-handers Lucas Giolito and Reynaldo López from the Chicago White Sox on Wednesday night, signaling their determination to contend for a playoff spot with Shohei Ohtani.

The Angels traded two of their top minor league prospects—left-hander Ky Bush and catcher Edgar Quero—to the White Sox, who got a solid return for two talented veteran pitchers playing their final season before unrestricted free agency.
