Daniel Hudson

Daniel Hudson has his club option of $8.5 million picked up by the Dodgers for the 2023 season.

Fantasy Impact

Hudson also had another club option for 2024 added to his contract that could be worth $6.5 million based on appearances. Hudson underwent surgery for a torn ACL in June but plans to be ready for Spring Training in 2023.

Daniel Hudson has officially been placed on the IL with a torn left ACL.

Fantasy Impact

This will obviously keep Hudson out for the rest of 2022. He was outstanding this season, ranking in at least the 90th percentile in K%, xwOBA, Barrel %, and more. He only had 5 saves this season but was still efficient enough to be rostered. Any save opportunities that would have gone his way will likely go to Brusdar Graterol if Craig Kimbrel isn't available.

Daniel Hudson is likely out for the season after suffering an ACL injury on Friday against the Braves.

Fantasy Impact

Hudson's left knee buckled as he tried to follow through on a pitch and then pivot to get a ground ball. It's a terrible break for a player who has battled through injuries constantly in his career. Hudson was looking like an insurance policy for Craig Kimbrel, but he can obviously now be dropped in all redraft leagues.

Los Angeles Dodgers RP Daniel Hudson pitched the ninth inning on Wednesday, striking out two, and allowing one hit for zero earned runs in the Dodgers' 4-1 win over the White Sox.

Fantasy Impact

Hudson has been fantastic for the Dodgers this season as he is pitching with an ERA of 1.86 and five saves on the season. The Dodgers reliever is worth rostering but he is not the teams main closer as that role belongs to Craig Kimbrel.

Los Angeles Dodgers RP Daniel Hudson pitched 1 1/3 innings on Friday, striking out two, and allowing one hit for zero earned runs in the Dodgers' 6-1 win over the Mets.

Fantasy Impact

Hudson earned the save on Friday due to his pitching the eighth inning when the Dodgers held a four run lead. The Dodger reliever has a rather strong ERA of 1.96 and seems locked in as the teams second closer behind Craig Kimbrel and thus he will pick up saves this year and is worth rostering due to that.
