Jon Singleton Stats

The Houston Astros are calling up first baseman Jon Singleton from Triple-A Sugar Land to join the team on Tuesday against the Baltimore Orioles, according to general manager Dana Brown. Singleton played with the Astros in 2014-15 before returning to the big leagues this year with the Milwaukee Brewers. The 31-year-old left-handed slugger only played in 11 games with the Brew Crew earlier this year and had just three hits in 29 at-bats with one double, two RBI, 11 strikeouts and three runs scored in 32 trips to the plate. He hit .289/.409/.567 with a .976 OPS, 22 home runs and 57 RBI in 82 games with Sugar Land and Triple-A Nashville, though, so the Astros are going to give him a chance to provide some depth at first base and designated hitter for the time being.

The Milwaukee Brewers are calling up first baseman Jon Singleton from Triple-A Nashville on Saturday, according to sources familiar with the situation. It will be Singleton's first time in the majors since 2015, when he appeared in 19 games for the Houston Astros and went just 9-for-47 (.191) with two doubles, a homer, six RBI and 17 strikeouts in 58 trips to the plate. The 31-year-old left-handed hitter was hitting .258 (46-for-178) with eight doubles, a triple, 10 home runs and 29 RBI in 49 games at Nashville to earn the promotion to Milwaukee. He gets the chance with Darin Ruf (knee) going to the 10-day injured list, but Singletary isn't going to have much fantasy appeal as a backup for the Brewers.

The Milwaukee Brewers signed free-agent first baseman Jon Singleton to a minor-league deal on Friday that includes an invite to big-league spring training. The Brewers also invited catching prospect Jeferson Quero to MLB camp as a non-roster invitee. Singleton has only spent two seasons in the majors for the Houston Astros back in 2014 and 2015. He didn't play at all from 2018-2020 and resurfaced in Mexico in 2021 before playing 134 games with Triple-A Nashville in the Brewers organization last year. The 31-year-old lefty hitter batted .219/.375/.434 with an .809 OPS, 24 home runs, 87 RBI, 84 runs scored and three stolen bases in his 581 plate appearances. Singleton will be first base depth for Milwaukee and will almost certainly begin the year in the minors.
