The Brewers traded Perkins and Craig Yoho to the Guardians on Saturday in exchange for Bo Naylor and Codi Heuer, Zack Meisel of The Athletic reports.
Perkins has taken a step back offensively this season, slashing .157/.250/.258 across 55 games in the majors, and he hasn’t recorded a plate appearance since the Brewers called up top outfield prospect Luis Lara from Triple-A on July 7. Perkins will now get a shot at a fresh start with the Guardians and could find work in center field as an alternative to the struggling Petey Halpin (.535 OPS).
