Daniel Hudson

Dodgers’ Pitcher

Hudson, 37, is back with the Dodgers for a third consecutive season after making three appearances for Los Angeles in 2023 and recording one save. In 3.0 innings, he gave up no runs on two hits before sustaining a season-ending knee injury on July 5.

He was 2-3 in 2022 with five saves and a 2.22 ERA before he tore his ACL against the Braves on June 24. With a combined record of 59-43, a 3.79 ERA, and 754 strikeouts in 792.1 innings, the Virginia native has spent parts of 14 seasons in the Major Leagues with the Chicago-AL (2009–10), Arizona (2010–16), Pittsburgh (2017), Los Angeles (2018, 2022–24), Toronto (2019), Washington (2019–21), and San Diego (2021).

Out of Old Dominion University, he was originally selected by the White Sox in the fifth round of the 2008 First-Year Player Draft.
