2024 Fantasy Outlook
Hudson was limited to just three innings in 2023 after dealing with knee issues all season. First, he had a delayed start to the campaign while recovering from 2022 surgery to repair his ACL. However, when he made it back, he quickly suffered a sprained MCL in the other knee that ultimately ended his season. The Dodgers declined Hudson's $6.5 million team option for 2024, but recently re-signed the 36-year-old to a minor-league contract. If health permits, he'll have the opportunity to earn a spot in the Dodgers' bullpen out of spring training. Read Past Outlooks
Nabs third save
Hudson struck out two in a perfect inning to earn the save in Monday's 6-4 win over the Diamondbacks.
ANALYSIS
Hudson is on a five-inning scoreless streak dating back to his May 8 save versus the Marlins. He's served as the Dodgers' top closing option since Evan Phillips (hamstring) went on the injured list earlier in May, though save chances have been sparse. Hudson has two saves since Phillips was hurt, while J.P. Feyereisen, who was reassigned to Triple-A Oklahoma City over the weekend, is the only other reliever to pick up a save in that span. For the season, Hudson is at a 2.70 ERA, 0.75 WHIP and 22:1 K:BB with three saves and eight holds over 20 innings.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Might not return this season
Hudson is set to miss "a significant amount of time" after suffering a sprained MCL in his right knee, but Dodgers manager David Roberts said Thursday the team is "hopeful" he can return to the mound this season, Jorge Castillo of the Los Angeles Times reports.
ANALYSIS
Hudson is expected to miss at least one month or two, according to Mike DiGiovanna of the Los Angeles Times, but either way, this represents a brutal blow for the Dodgers and the 22-year-old himself. He recorded three scoreless appearances on the season before landing on the injured list once again, as he missed the opening months of the campaign while rehabbing from a torn ACL in his left knee. Based on this, it's unclear whether Hudson will be able to pitch at all during the rest of the campaign.

Hudson was limited to 24.1 innings after tearing his ACL in late June. The injury carries a lengthy recovery timeline, but the veteran hopes to be ready by the start of camp, or close to it. The Dodgers were optimistic enough to pick up Hudson's $6.5 million option for 2023. Despite his age - Hudson will be 36 this year - recent seasons have proven he can still be an effective high-leverage reliever. The right-hander had five saves and nine holds in his 25 appearances last year while maintaining a 30-plus percent strikeout rate and 16-plus percent SwStr% for three years running. As long as Hudson's velocity (97 mph) is not affected by his injury, and can keep his walk rate down between last year's mark (5.2%) and the season prior (7.8%), he should return excellent late-round value for those speculating on saves.
