Athletics Claim Luke Hughes
The Athletics have claimed infielder Luke Hughes off waivers from the Twins,
according to the A's official Twitter account. Dallas Braden was transferred
to the 60-day disabled list in a corresponding move.
Hughes, a native of Australia, signed with the Twins as a free agent back in
2002. Because he was out of options, Minnesota designated the 27-year-old for
assignment last week after just 11 plate appearances this season in an
attempt to send him to Triple-A Rochester.
Hughes has appearead in parts of three seasons for the Twins, seeing time at
third base, second base, and first base. Over his brief Major League career
(335 plate appearances), the righty is a .224/.285/.342 hitter. He's fared
better in the minor leagues, hitting .257/.319/.440 over parts of four
Triple-A seasons. Perhaps Hughes' best asset in the minors was his ability to
hit left-handed pitching, but that has yet to show in his Major League
career.
The Athletics recently claimed fellow Australian Rich Thompson off waivers
from the Angels, and has another Australian, Grant Balfour, currently
installed as their closer.
