Brewers DFA 4-Year MLB Veteran Infielder
The Milwaukee Brewers are moving on from one of their infielders, as they have designated Jonathan Ornelas for assignment.
The Milwaukee Brewers have let go of infielder Jonathan Ornelas, designating him for assignment. This follows the reinstatement of outfielder Sal Frelick from the 10-day injured list. Ornelas played in just three games for the Brewers this season, hitting a .222 average. He also had a brief stint with the Athletics earlier in the year, where he batted .167.
With a wealth of MLB experience, Ornelas was capable of playing multiple positions, making him an intriguing option for teams seeking additional infield depth. His career in the majors, spanning four seasons between the Texas Rangers, Athletics, and Brewers, has yielded zero home runs, four RBIs, and a .203 batting average across 41 games. As teams assess their roster needs, Ornelas' versatility may attract interest from other clubs.
