This guy is not a great pitcher at this point in his career. He will get you 12-14 wins with a mid-hi 3 ERA. A lot of people love Huddy, but if you look at the stats, you can see that these individuals are misled.
Hudson is not a #1 or #2 SP, but, he's a solid #3 or #4. I just traded
Reitsma for him. Leaves me with Nathan, Cordero, Dempster and
Jenks. Hudson my #3 or#4 behind Johan, Sheets and J Vazquez.
One thing is for sure, he is definitely not as bad as he's looked in his first two starts.
Maine has a good swing for a pitcher but on anything that moves, he has no chance. And if it's a fastball, it has to be up in the zone. Basically, the pitcher has to hit his bat. - Mike Pelfrey
