20. Luke Hughes
Third Baseman
Bats: Right
Age: 25
ETA: 2010
Potential: Super utility bench bat
2010 outlook: Rochester
Hughes had a breakout year in 2008. He had 18 homers and 22 doubles in 99 games. This year he hit .254/.335/.448 with 12 homers. His bat is solid, and he can hit for power. He is not very good defensively though. He has played shortstop, second base, third base, and in the outfield so he does have some variety. I don’t know if his glove is good enough to be an everyday player, but his pop in his bat gives him value, and I could see him sticking as a good bat on the bench and a guy who fills in at various positions a couple of times a week.
