The Brewers traded Maldonado to the Angels on Tuesday, Joel Sherman of the New York Post reports.

Milwaukee packaged Maldonado with Drew Gagnon to land a marginal upgrade at the catcher position in Jett Bandy. Maldonado graded out favorably behind the plate in 2016 and walked at a 13.8 percent clip, but the rest of his offensive numbers were less than stellar. Still, Maldonado would seem to have a leg up on Carlos Perez for the lion's share of the playing time in 2017.
