HILLSBOROUGH COUNTY, FLORIDA, JUL 29 – The Rays traded catcher Danny Jansen to the Brewers and acquired Nick Fortes from the Marlins to improve catching depth while balancing present and future roster needs, MLB Pipeline noted.

- Jansen will provide catching depth for the Brewers, with William Contreras playing through a fractured finger, the team announced.
- The deals also tweak the back end of the Rays' top prospects list, per MLB Pipeline, as teams now have three days before the deadline.
