Hu signed a minor-league contract with the Padres on Thursday, Bob Nightengale of USA Today reports.

EDGE Analysis

The right-hander spent all of 2019 in the minors, where he posted a 7.74 ERA with a 45:24 K:BB over 54.2 innings. Despite his struggles, he'll get a chance to bounce back within the Padres' organization. Given Hu's past experience in the majors, he will likely appear in major-league spring training as a non-roster invitee.

Hu signed a minor-league contract with the Cubs on Thursday, Brandon Warne of ZoneCoverage.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Hu struggled to a 7.18 ERA across 57.2 innings with Double-A Akron and Triple-A Columbus before being cut loose by the Indians at the end of July. The righty does own a 3.52 ERA across 23 career big-league innings.

Hu was released by Cleveland on Tuesday.

EDGE Analysis

Hu owns a 7.18 ERA in 57.2 innings across the two highest levels of the minors this season, striking out just 19.3 percent of opposing batters. He could still generate some interest as a free agent thanks to his 3.52 ERA in 23 career big-league innings.

Hu was sent outright to Triple-A Columbus on Monday, Tribeinsider reports.

EDGE Analysis

Hu was booted from the 40-man roster Wednesday and went unclaimed while on the waiver wire, which is unsurprising considering his 7.95 ERA and 1.62 WHIP over 48.2 innings at Triple-A this season.

Hu was designated for assignment by Cleveland on Wednesday.

EDGE Analysis

Hu was removed from the 40-man roster to clear a spot for Andrew Velazquez (undisclosed), who was acquired in a trade from Tampa Bay in a corresponding move. Hu owns a very poor 7.95 ERA in 48.2 innings for Triple-A Columbus this season, though his 3.52 ERA in 23 career major-league innings could make him worth a look on waivers.

Hu (hip) returned from the 7-day injured list at Triple-A Columbus on Saturday.

EDGE Analysis

Hu missed just over two weeks with right hip flexor tightness. He owns a poor 6.54 ERA in 42.2 innings for Columbus this season.

Hu was placed on the 7-day injured list Thursday due to right hip flexor tightness, Tribeinsider reports.

EDGE Analysis

It's unclear as to when Hu's injury cropped up, but he'll head to the shelf for at least a week while on the mend. He's accrued a 6.54 ERA and 1.54 WHIP with a 34:16 K:BB over 42.2 innings this season for Triple-A Columbus.

Hu was optioned to Triple-A Columbus on Friday.

EDGE Analysis

Hu was acquired by the Indians from the Rays in November but didn't showcase himself well in spring training with 12 runs allowed on 13 hits over four innings. The 25-year-old appeared in 11 games with the Rays over the last two seasons as he spent the bulk of his time at Triple-A Durham.

Hu was traded to the Indians in exchange for infielder Gionti Turner on Monday.

EDGE Analysis

The 25-year-old spent much of the season with the Rays' Triple-A affiliate, producing a 4.66 ERA and a 92:28 K:BB in 102 innings split between 19 starts and five relief appearances. He also has 23 innings of major-league experience under his belt from the past two seasons, allowing nine runs with a 21:7 K:BB in that span. Hu figures to be in the mix for a bullpen spot with his new club, though he does have an option remaining if Cleveland bolsters their bullpen more with veteran arms.

Hu will be recalled from Triple-A Durham on Thursday.

EDGE Analysis

Hu has appeared in just three games for the Rays this season, posting a 5.40 ERA and 0.80 WHIP with nine strikeouts in 10 innings of relief. Look for him to serve in low-leverage spots upon his arrival prior to the series opener in Toronto.
