Daniel Paul "Danny" Valencia (born September 19, 1984) is an American professional baseball third baseman for the Oakland Athletics of Major League Baseball (MLB). He has also played for the Minnesota Twins, Boston Red Sox, Baltimore Orioles, Kansas City Royals, and Toronto Blue Jays,.
In high school, Valencia was all-county three times and all-state twice. At the University of North Carolina at Greensboro, he was Southern Conference Freshman of the Year, second-team all-conference, and on his all-regional team. He was drafted while he was a junior at the University of Miami by the Twins in the 19th round of the 2006 Major League Baseball Draft, the 576th player overall.
In the minors, Valencia was an All-Star in the Appalachian League (2006), the Midwest League (2007), and the Florida State League (2008). He entered the 2010 season ranked as the sixth-best prospect of the Twins by ''Baseball America''.
Valencia made his major league debut with the Twins in June 2010. He was named the third baseman on ''Baseball Americas 2010 All-Rookie Team, and on the 2010 Topps Major League Rookie All-Star Team. In 2011, he led the Twins in RBIs, and led all major league third basemen in assists. In 2013, he batted .371 vs. left-handed pitching, leading the American League, and ranked third in slugging percentage at .639 (minimum 100 plate appearances).
==Early life==
Valencia is Jewish, and was born in Miami, Florida. His parents are Mindy Valencia, who is Jewish, and Jewish Cuban immigrant Michael Valencia, who converted to Judaism.〔 He grew up in Boca Raton, Florida. He was raised Jewish, and has said: "People are shocked at first that I’m Jewish. I get teased in the clubhouse about being Jewish, but we all get teased about something. Going to Hebrew school and being a bar mitzvah … made my mom really happy. I wished I had been out playing baseball, but looking back at it now, I’m happy I did it.” Valencia has a sister, Laura.〔("Hurricanes Baseball 2006; Danny Valencia" ). Retrieved July 4, 2010.〕
In 1996, Valencia pitched for the Boca Raton Babe Ruth League 12-and-under all-star baseball team that won the Florida state championship. The next year, he pitched and hit for the Boca Lightning 12-and-under travel baseball team that went 27–2 and won the South Florida All-Star Travel League championship. His two key hitting coaches growing up were Bob Molinaro, a family friend who is a former major leaguer and Eastern League manager, and his mother Mindy.
