Philadelphia completed a trade deal Wednesday, bringing in outfielder Steward Berroa from Milwaukee in exchange for cash.
The 26-year-old Berroa was immediately sent down to Triple-A Lehigh Valley after joining the Phillies organization. Milwaukee had placed him on waivers the previous week.
To make space on their 40-man roster, Philadelphia released right-handed pitcher Yoniel Curet, who is 23 years old.
During his major league career spanning 30 games between Toronto in 2024 and Milwaukee this season, Berroa has struggled at the plate, posting a .167 batting average with just one run batted in.
