The Brewers swung a minor trade on Sunday. MLB.com’s Adam McCalvy reports that the club acquired left-handed reliever Bennett Sousa from the Reds for cash considerations.
Aaron Ashby, who underwent arthroscopic shoulder surgery last week, was transferred to the 60-day injured list to open up a 40-man roster spot for Sousa.
