Brewers designate Luis Rengifo for assignment after recalling Cooper Pratt
Summary

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.
