Despite being a game out of a playoff spot, the Milwaukee Brewers were sellers at the MLB trade deadline.

GM David Stearns moved reliever David Phelps Monday to the Philadelphia Phillies. He reportedly got three minor league prospects to be named later.

Phelps, a 10-year veteran, was in his first year with Milwaukee. The 33-year-old went 2-3 with a 2.77 ERA in 12 games. Opposing players had just a .156 batting average against him.

At 15-18, Milwaukee sits just one game back of St. Louis for second-place in the NL Central. The top two teams in each division make the playoffs.
