Brewers Outright Alex Hall to Wisconsin

After Omar Narvaez went down with Covid for the Brewers, Milwaukee needed a warm body to stand behind the plate in a pinch. They selected the contract of Alex Hall given the proximity while he was with Single-A Wisconsin. Once they were able to promote Alex Jackson from Triple-A Nashville, Hall was jettisoned from the 40-man roster. A 22-year-old non-prospect at Single-A, he predictably went unclaimed and then found himself outrighted back to the Timber Rattlers.

Hall did not appear in a game for Milwaukee and will return to the lower level of the farm system with hopes of working his way back to a Major League debut. Jackson takes over in a rotational role with fellow backstop Victor Caratini.
