- Former Texas A&M infielder traded to Brewers after strong Astros stint
Former Texas A&M All-American infielder Braden Shewmake is on the move again after spending the last month with the Houston Astros following his mid‑April call‑up. Shewmake made the most of his return to the majors , providing steady production and dependable defense while filling multiple infield roles.
During his time with Houston , he posted a .250/.265/.678 slash line with 20 hits, three home runs, and nine RBI. His defensive versatility proved valuable as the Astros dealt with injuries, and his fielding percentage remained close to league average, with third base standing out as his strongest position.

While being traded out of his home state is a little bittersweet, staying in the majors is the priority, and Shewmake is doing exactly that. On Sunday, it was announced that he had been traded to the Milwaukee Brewers , one of the hottest teams in baseball. Milwaukee enters the week with a 59–37 record, second only to the Los Angeles Dodgers at 61–36. If the Brewers maintain their pace , Shewmake could find himself in the postseason picture in about a month.
