Brewers maintain necessary infield depth after reuniting with minor league free agent

The Milwaukee Brewers re-signed infielder Jonathan Ornelas to a minor league deal after he elected free agency following his designation for assignment. Ornelas had been acquired from the Athletics in late August to provide infield depth during a stretch when injuries sidelined Cooper Pratt, Brice Turang, and Joey Ortiz simultaneously. The 26-year-old's return helps address the team's need for backup infield options as the season winds down and replacement players become harder to find.
