The Brewers signed third baseman Josh Donaldson to a minor-league contract on August 31. After a week and a half in the minor league with Triple-A Nashville, the Brewers are bringing him up. They officially selected his contract this afternoon. To clear roster space, Owen Miller was optioned down to Nashville, and J.C. Mejia was placed on the 60-day IL.
Donaldson started the season with the Yankees and played in 33 games. He only had 15 hits in 106 AB, but had 10 home runs. In Nashville, he played in five games and went 3-for-17, but also had two home runs there.
