Mark Canha finally has his trade deadline clarity, the kind he’d been vocal about wanting as the Mets’ sale began.
The Mets traded the veteran outfielder to Milwaukee in exchange for minor-league pitcher Justin Jarvis, according to The Post’s Joel Sherman.
It’s the latest piece moved ahead of Tuesday’s 6 p.m. deadline by the Mets, with Canha joining closer David Robertson (Marlins) and co-ace Max Scherzer (Rangers) as those moved out of Queens.
And for Canha, he’ll join a Brewers team that currently trails the NL Central-leading Reds by 0.5 games entering Monday night.
Canha signed with the Mets following the 2021 season on a two-year deal with a club option for 2024, adding a right-handed bat to the lineup.
He spent the first seven seasons of his career with the A’s.
But Canha emerged as a possible — and then probable — trade piece for the Mets to deal ahead of the deadline, alongside Tommy Pham, another veteran outfielder, and Justin Verlander, among others.
He’s hitting .245 with a .725 OPS through 89 games.
