The Milwaukee Brewers have placed closer Trevor Megill on the injured list with a flexor strain in his throwing arm, the team announced Wednesday. In corresponding moves, the Brewers signed right-hander Erick Fedde to a one-year contract and created space for him on the 40-player roster by transferring fellow righty Logan Henderson to the 60-day injured list. (Henderson has been sidelined with his own flexor strain since early August.)

Megill, 31, made his first career All-Star Game earlier this summer. In 49 appearances, he amassed a 2.54 ERA (164 ERA+) and a 3.41 strikeout-to-walk ratio. Megill also recorded 30 of his 51 career saves and tallied 1.4 Wins Above Replacement, per Baseball Reference's calculations.
