The Milwaukee Brewers have acquired outfielder Luis Matos from the San Francisco Giants for cash.
Milwaukee completed the trade Monday and made room for Matos on the 40-man roster by designating left-handed pitcher Sammy Peralta for assignment.
Matos, a 24-year-old from Venezuela, had been designated for assignment by the Giants last week. He batted .221 with a .266 on-base percentage, eight homers, 22 RBIs and four steals in 57 games last season.
