Cubs Designate Alex Hinshaw For Assignment

By Ben Nicholson-Smith | August 28, 2012 at 4:07pm CDT

The Cubs designated left-hander Alex Hinshaw for assignment just nine days after claiming him from the Padres, Doug Padilla of ESPNChicago.com reports (on Twitter). The Cubs called up right-handed reliever Blake Parker in a related move.

Hinshaw posted a 4.50 ERA with 11.6 K/9 and 6.4 BB/9 in 28 innings with the Padres before being claimed off of waivers by Chicago on August 19th. He appeared in two games for the Cubs, recording just one out. The 29-year-old allowed three home runs to the Brewers last night and didn't record an out.

      Read the first sentence. 😛

      Yes, and he was AWFUL last night. Two singles and then back-to-back-to-back HRs.

        They weren’t regular HR’s either. Those balls were crushed!

      That’s pretty much been their MO this year: claim guys other teams DFA and pray they work. So far…not so much.

    I think that Alex Hinshaw would be a deal of Sabean’s. Hinshaw is a Ex-Giants Pitcher and would be signed to a minor league deal.

    The A’s should pick him up as a middle reliever.
