Before Friday’s game, the Dodgers made a trade with the Milwaukee Brewers.
Curt Hogg of Milwaukee Journal Sentinel wrote: “A minor league trade: Milwaukee has acquired outfielder Damon Keith from the Dodgers for cash considerations. Keith hit .226 with a .681 OPS last year in Class AA, where he will likely begin the season.”

He is coming off a year where he batted .226 with 11 home runs, 44 RBI’s, 41 runs and nine stolen bases (in Double-A).
MLB Social Media Reacts To Trade
Here’s what people were saying about the news:
@RyanBooj: “Much needed outfield depth. Really only have Lara, Black, Jones in AAA as OF.”
@SteveH1595816: “Like the Dodgers need any more cash… 😏”
@Damon98_: “Brewers fleeced clearly”

@MatthewMKE98: “Over or under 1.5 years before he is the next under the radar guy to make a big play for the Brewers when nobody expects it I
’ll take the under”
@suitedconnect: “No offense to Keith, who is far better than me, but this appears to be nothing more than roster filler.
27 homers in AA, but strikes out once every 3 AB’s…against opponents who, for the most part, can’t throw breaking balls for strikes.”
@msalas24: “Wishing all the best for Damon Keith”
@javblake8: “Keith was originally an 18th round pick by the Dodgers in 2021. Over the last 2 years in Double-A he has 27 HR, a .241/.316/.438 slash line and a .754 OPS”
