The Oakland Athletics claimed outfielder Andrew Lambo off waivers from the Pittsburgh Pirates on Friday.

Selected in the fourth round of the 2007 draft by the Los Angeles Dodgers, Lambo spent his entire three-year major league career with the Pirates. The 27-year-old hit one home run and seven doubles in 59 games across three seasons, hitting .191/.232/.298 while seeing time in both the corner outfield spots.

Lambo struggled through 20 games in 2015, going 1-for-25 with eight strikeouts.
