Milwaukee Brewers & Cleveland Guardians Complete Trade

The Milwaukee Brewers have swung a trade with the Cleveland Guardians to acquire a versatile infielder who had a pretty good start to this past season. 

The Milwaukee Brewers have acquired infielder Owen Miller from the Cleveland Guardians in exchange for a player to be named later or cash.

Owen Miller, 26, had a solid month of April, batting .400 for the Guardians in 14 games started, while slugging .700 with two home runs and nine doubles. But things leveled off from there for Miller, as he hit just .211 in May and .191 in June. He finished the year batting .243 with a .652 OPS with six homers and 51 RBIs. 

His versatility is a bonus, as he played 80 games at first base, 25 at second base, and another four games at third, while DHing another 22 times. 

The Guardians will receive the proverbial "player to be named later", or cash in return.
