Jorge Alfaro Signs Minors Deal With Brewers
Free-agent catcher Jorge Alfaro signed a minor-league deal with an invite to major-league spring training with the Milwaukee Brewers on Tuesday, according to sources. Alfaro signed a minor-league deal with the Chicago Cubs last year but was released during spring training. The 31-year-old veteran backstop didn't see action anywhere in the big leagues in 2024 but will head to spring training in 2025 as catching depth for the Brew Crew. The Colombian catcher last appeared in the majors in 2023 with the Colorado Rockies and Boston Red Sox and went 7-for-48 (.146) with a homer and four RBI in just 18 games played. If Alfaro doesn't get cut by Milwaukee this spring, he will likely open the year at Triple-A Nashville as minor-league depth. In parts of eight seasons in the majors with five different teams, Alfaro has a career .253/.302/.393 slash line with 48 homers and 198 RBI in 496 games played.
