July 9, 201015 yr Oops, i read it wrong, article actually says sometime this weekend. Per Jason Grey on his espn blog A little excerpt from it The 23-year-old right-hander is a pretty polished pitcher who doesn't get quite the love from scouts as some other players because of his lack of a real standout pitch. What he does do is throw three solid pitches pretty well and change speeds, and he does a decent job of throwing strikes. His four-seamer will sit at 91-94 with some arm-side run. His best secondary offering is a low-80s changeup that flashes as a plus pitch with good sink and fade, and he throws it without tipping it with his arm speed. His mid-80s slider is a solid-average pitch when he gets on top of it, with decent tilt that he can bury in the bottom of the strike zone. He also has a mid-70s soft, loopy curveball he rarely uses, and for good reason... All that said, Hudson has shown an ability to make adjustments quickly, and I like the overall package of stuff, polish and makeup. He can be a solid third or fourth starter in the big leagues.
