Brewers trade Orlando Arcia to Atlanta
Orlando Arcia’s time in Milwaukee is done.
The Brewers have traded the infielder to Atlanta for a pair of pitchers in return.
“On behalf of the entire organization, I want to thank Orlando for his contributions to our team and community,” President of Baseball Operations David Stearns said in a statement. “Orlando contributed to some of the biggest moments in Brewers history, including his memorable four-hit performance in game 163 in 2018. We wish Orlando and his family well as they move on to their next baseball chapter.”
