Cincinnati Reds trade OF Josh Fellhauer to Brewers

The Cincinnati Reds have traded outfielder Josh Fellhauer to the Milwaukee Brewers for “cash considerations” and Milwaukee has sent him to Double-A Huntsville.

Fellhauer has been at all levels of the system, peaking at Triple-A in both 2013 and in 2014. His best season came in Double-A in 2012 when he hit .314/.409/.420 with as many walks as strikeouts. That was the same season he began to be used as more of a platoon player, avoiding many left handers. He began the 2014 season injured and returned in early May, spending a week in Louisville before being sent to Pensacola where he had been playing ever since. He has struggled this season, hitting just .239/.338/.313 on the season. He can play all three outfield spots if you need him to, though he does fit better defensively in the corners.
