The Milwaukee Brewers added to their outfield depth Thursday, recalling Alex Presley from Triple-A Colorado Springs and sending down pitcher Tyler Cravy to the same club.

To make room for Presley on the 40-man roster, pitcher Zack Jones was transferred from the 15-day disabled list to the 60-day DL.

Presley has played 329 games in the major leagues, most recently with Houston from 2014-15. He also has played for Minnesota and Pittsburgh. Presley has a career slash line of 259/299/393 and has 25 stolen bases in 41 attempts.

In nine games with the Sky Sox this season, Presley was batting 344/400/563. He has experience playing all three outfield positions.

Cravy appeared in five games this season for the Brewers, allowing two runs in 5 2/3 innings on eight hits with no walks and five strikeouts.
