The Milwaukee Brewers acquired catcher Bo Naylor and right-hander Codi Heuer from the Cleveland Guardians for right-hander Craig Yoho and outfielder Blake Perkins, the teams announced Saturday.
Naylor and Heuer will both report to Triple-A.
Naylor, a former first-round pick, provides the Brewers with additional catching depth behind starter William Contreras and backup Gary Sánchez.
The 26-year-old Naylor served as Cleveland's starting backstop before being demoted to the minors in May after hitting .143/.200/.238 in 28 games.
Heuer, like Naylor, has spent most of this season in the minors. The 30-year-old's made 97 big-league appearances throughout his career, authoring a 3.76 ERA in 105 1/3 innings.
Yoho, 26, has pitched to a 3.15 ERA and 0.85 WHIP in 15 appearances out of Milwaukee's bullpen this season. Opposing hitters are batting just .132 against the right-hander.
The 29-year-old Perkins owns a career .223/.307/.330 slash line with 14 homers and 93 RBIs in 297 games. He has experience playing all three outfield positions.
