The Los Angeles Dodgers have made a trade.
They agreed to a deal with the Milwaukee Brewers on Friday afternoon as the MLB season just starts to get rolling.
The Dodgers are sending 25-year old outfielder Damon Keith to Milwaukee.
The return will just be some cash to L.A., according to MLB.com's Adam McCalvy.
It's just a depth move for the Brewers and a way to move some pieces around for the Dodgers.

Keith was an 18th-round draft pick by the Dodgers in 2021 out of Cal Baptist.
The 6-foot-3 outfielder has made it as high as Double-A Tulsa in the Dodgers' system.
Keith played 89 games for Tulsa in 2025 and hit .226 with 12 doubles, three triples, 11 home runs and nine stolen bases.
He has a career .254 average and .793 OPS in the minor leagues, and he was actually much better at Double-A in 2024 compared to 2025, so maybe there is still a little bit of upside to tap back into for the Brewers.
McCalvy wrote that Milwaukee is expected to send Keith to Double-A Biloxi. Given his age and his experience at that level, though, if he hits well early it seems like a decent chance he'll get his first crack at Triple-A.
It's not a big move, but it's one that at least gives the Brewers the chance at a young player who still could have some room for growth.
