Brewers acquire Danny Jansen for catching depth
The Brewers have acquired catcher Danny Jansen in a trade, sending infielder Jadher Areinamo and cash to Tampa Bay. Jansen, a 30-year-old Wisconsin native who has previously played for the Blue Jays, Red Sox, and Rays, will provide crucial catching depth for Milwaukee. He compiled a .703 OPS with 11 home runs in 73 games this season, and his addition comes as starter William Contreras has been playing with a fractured middle finger.
