The Brewers introduced at present that they’ve chosen the contract of infielder/catcher Anthony Seigler. Francys Romero of BeisbolFR.com reported that transfer earlier this week. Outfielder Daz Cameron has been designated for task in a corresponding transfer.
Now 26 years previous, Seigler was the Yankees’ first-round choice, No. 23 general, again in 2018. He grew to become a minor league free agent following the 2024 season and in November signed a minor league pact with the Brewers. He’s spent the season up to now in Triple-A Nashville, the place he’s turned in a robust .277/.416/.465 batting line with seven dwelling runs, 11 doubles, 4 triples and 20 stolen bases in 23 makes an attempt. Seigler has walked in a colossal 18.4% of his plate appearances in opposition to a 19.1% strikeout fee.
Seigler has break up his time between second base (203 innings), catcher (201 innings) and third base (94 innings) throughout his time in Nashville. He’s unlikely to see a lot time at second base with Brice Turang having fun with a robust season there, and the left facet of the infield has improved of late with Joey Ortiz and Caleb Durbin each having fun with productive months in June. Nonetheless, Seigler may very well be an improve over Andruw Monasterio on the bench.
Seigler’s name to the majors might be his first. He performed in elements of six minor league seasons with the Yankees group and is now halfway by his seventh professional season.
