MILWAUKEE — Veteran catcher Reese McGuire has signed a minor league contract with the Milwaukee Brewers that includes an invitation to major league camp.
McGuire, who turns 31 on March 2, batted .226 with a .245 on-base percentage, nine homers and 24 RBI in 44 games for the Chicago Cubs last season.
He has hit .248 with a .293 on-base percentage, 25 homers and 106 RBI in 399 career games with the Toronto Blue Jays (2018-21), Chicago White Sox (2022), Boston Red Sox (2022-24) and Cubs. The Pittsburgh Pirates selected McGuire with the 14th pick in the 2013 draft.
Two-time All-Star William Contreras and 23-year-old prospect Jeferson Quero are the only catchers on the Brewers’ 40-man roster. Danny Jansen, who had been Contreras’ main backup after arriving from Tampa Bay at last season’s trade deadline, signed a two-year, $14.5 million contract with the Texas Rangers in the offseason.
