EDGE Analysis

Calhoun mentioned that he hoped to be traded after he was optioned to Triple-A a month ago, and now the other 29 teams will have the option of claiming him off waivers. He never hit enough in the majors (career .241/.300/.407 slash line) to make up for his subpar defense. Calhoun slashed .231/.282/.415 with four home runs in 16 games at Triple-A.
