Report: Giants Acquire Reliever Will Smith In Trade With Brewers

The San Francisco Giants have found the bullpen help they've been searching for. The team has landed Will Smith in a deal with the Milwaukee Brewers. 

Phil Bickford and Andrew Susac are the prospects heading to the Brewers. Bickford is the Giants' top prospect and the No. 65 overall. The starting pitcher was a 2015 first round pick.

The addition of Susac should help the Brewers move Jonathan Lucroy. The catcher is currently at the Triple-A level, but has spent time in 2014 and 2015 in the majors. He has a .240 batting average in 87 career major league games.  

Smith has three years of arbitration left. He's making just $1.475 million this year. Smith has a 3.68 ERA this season, a 1.23 WHIP and is just 27 years old. He'll likely be the top lefty set-up man for the Giants, as he has just one career save.
