Milwaukee Brewers Sign Outfielder


The Milwaukee Brewers add to their depth.

The Brewers have signed outfielder Lamar Sparks to a minor-league contract.

Sparks gets an opportunity with the Brewers after slashing an impressive .399/.461/.665 line, with 18 home runs and 16 stolen bases over 346 plate appearances last season for the Missoula PaddleHeads of the Independent Pioneer League.

The twenty-four-year-old is a former fifth-round pick by the Baltimore Orioles in the 2017 MLB Draft. 

For his minor league career, Sparks holds a .246/.354/.703 triple-slash line, with six home runs, 48 RBIs, 34 stolen bases and 79 runs scored over 613 at-bats.

He'll look to further his playing career in the Brewers' organization.
