Hughes, who is currently age 28 went 16-10 for the Twins last season with a 3.52 earned run average, 186 strikeouts, and just 16 walks in 209.2 innings of work.

Phil Hughes had a chance to collect a 500 thousand-dollar bonus last season, but he said he couldn’t take the bonus
“I just didn’t think it was right,” Hughes said. “I owe too much to this organization for the next two years to risk getting hurt for an incentive. For whatever reason it wasn’t meant to be. There’s a lot bigger problems out there. I’m proud of my season.
