The Milwaukee Brewers announced the signing of Josh Fields to a Minor League contract with an invitation to Major League camp. He was released by the Los Angeles Dodgers on March 10, three days after being designated for assignment.
That was a corresponding move to the Dodgers claiming left-handed relief pitcher Donnie Hart off waivers from the Baltimore Orioles. Fields appeared in three Cactus League games for the Dodgers, allowing just one hit and a run over three innings pitched, while striking out two and walking one.
Dodgers manager Dave Roberts was encouraged by signs Fields showed of moving past last season’s shoulder trouble that limited him to just 45 games.
