The Milwaukee Brewers announced a few minor league transactions earlier today, including confirming the previously reported signings of lefty Andrew Barbosa and righty Forrest Snow. The club also announced the signings of utilityman Ivan De Jesus as well as the re-signing of both catcher Rene Garcia and right-hander Tim Dillard, all to minor league contracts.
De Jesus, who will turn 30 next season, was a 2nd round pick by the Dodgers back in 2005. He was a well-regarded prospect coming up, including ranking in Baseball Prospectus’ top 100 prior to the 2009 season.
