推 RoyGuy:祝福Kila 09/28 22:48
The Royals announced today that the club has acquired minor league
right-handed pitcher Ethan Hollingsworth from the Oakland Athletics in
exchange for first baseman Kila Ka’aihue. Hollingsworth was assigned to the
Omaha (AAA) Storm Chasers roster.
The 24-year-old Hollingsworth spent a majority of the 2011 season with
Midland (AA) in the Texas League, compiling a 6-5 record with a 3.61 ERA in
17 appearances, including 16 starts. The 6-foot-2, 200-pounder also made a
pair of late season starts with Triple-A Sacramento and one relief appearance
in the Pacific Coast League playoffs. Born and raised in Joliet, Ill.,
Hollingsworth, whose first name is Phillip but goes by his middle name Ethan,
was originally drafted by the Colorado Rockies in the fourth round of the
2008 Draft out of Western Michigan University. He was traded to Oakland for
pitcher Clayton Mortensen on January 24, 2011.
Ka’aihue, 27, opened the season as the Royals starting first baseman and hit
.195 (16-for-82) with two home runs in 23 games before being optioned to
Omaha (AAA). He spent the remainder of the season with the Storm Chasers and
was designated for assignment by the Royals on September 21.
