The Milwaukee Brewers designated infielder Luis Rengifo for assignment on June 16, 2026, following his struggles this season. Rengifo, who signed a one-year deal worth $3.5 million, had a disappointing performance, hitting.205 with no home runs and 19 RBIs over 57 games. In a corresponding move, the Brewers recalled infielder Cooper Pratt, who recently signed an eight-year, $50.75 million contract. Rengifo's designation opens up questions about his future, as he may have to settle for a minor league deal if he clears waivers.
