The Brewers recalled Hudson from Triple-A Nashville on Friday.

Hudson posted a 4.15 ERA and 9:9 K:BB across 8.2 innings with the Brewers earlier this season but showed better control at Nashville with no walks in four frames. He'll operate in middle relief.

The Brewers optioned Hudson to Triple-A Nashville on Thursday.

EDGE Analysis

Hudson will head to the minors after turning in a 9:9 K:BB while allowing six runs (four earned) over 8.2 frames out of the Milwaukee bullpen through the first month of the season. The big lefty is clearing out to make room on the roster for Tobias Myers (oblique), who was activated from the 15-day injured list ahead of his season debut Thursday in San Francisco.

Hudson is not on the Brewers' roster for the National League Wild Card Series against the Mets, Curt Hogg of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.

EDGE Analysis

Hudson was one of the Brewers' best relievers this season, collecting a 1.73 ERA and 62:17 K:BB over 62.1 innings, but he was sent down to Triple-A Nashville in early September after his velocity dipped. The lefty allowed one run with a 10:0 K:BB across 5.2 frames at Nashville, but the team evidently still wasn't convinced he was ready to help during the first round of the playoffs.

The Brewers optioned Hudson to Triple-A Nashville on Tuesday, Adam McCalvy of MLB.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

The move looks odd on the surface, as Hudson boasts a 1.73 ERA and 62:17 K:BB over 62.1 innings this season and had turned in four straight scoreless appearances. However, his velocity has been trending in the wrong direction and the Brewers want to see him get that ticked back up in a less pressurized environment.

The Brewers activated Hudson (oblique) from the 15-day injured list Monday.

EDGE Analysis

Hudson wound up missing just a couple weeks of action with a strained left oblique. The left-handed reliever has been quite a find in the Brewers bullpen this season with a 1.60 ERA and 54 strikeouts in 50.2 innings. He'll return to a high-leverage role now that he's healthy again.

Hudson (oblique) will begin his rehab assignment with Triple-A Nashville on Sunday, Curt Hogg of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.

EDGE Analysis

Hudson was placed on the 15-day injured list July 27 with a left oblique strain, though it appears the 27-year-old southpaw may only require a minimum stint on the IL. He has been an integral piece to the Brewers' bullpen this year with a 1.60 ERA, 0.75 WHIP and 54:13 K:BB across 50.2 innings while also recording 12 holds in 35 outings.

The Brewers placed Hudson on the 15-day injured list Saturday, retroactive to July 24, with a left oblique strain.

EDGE Analysis

Hudson has been a key piece for the Brewers this season, posting a 1.60 ERA with 54 strikeouts in 50.2 innings out of the bullpen. However, he'll be forced to miss at least two weeks with a strained oblique. Tyler Jay was recalled from Triple-A Nashville in a corresponding move

Hudson threw two scoreless innings of relief and picked up his 11th hold of the season in Wednesday's victory over the Angels. He allowed a hit, struck out a batter and walked none.

EDGE Analysis

Hudson allowed two earned runs in his final appearance of May, but he gave up only two all season prior to that, and he has not allowed any runs through eight frames in June. Add it all up and Hudson now owns a minuscule 0.90 ERA along with a 0.65 WHIP and 46:8 K:BB over 40 innings out of Milwaukee's bullpen.

Hudson (3-0) picked up the win Monday against the Cubs. He pitched two scoreless innings with three strikeouts, allowing one hit and no walks.

EDGE Analysis

Hudson entered the seventh after Brewers starter Robert Gasser allowed consecutive singles to Seiya Suzuki and Cody Bellinger to begin the inning. The lefty reliever worked himself out of the jam, fanning two batters and inducing one popup. Hudson has been a stalwart in the Milwaukee bullpen, becoming manager Pat Murphy's most dependable southpaw, firing a 0.59 ERA, 0.73 WHIP and 36:7 K:BB over 30.1 innings this season.

Hudson (2-0) earned the win Wednesday over the Pirates, allowing one hit over 1.2 scoreless innings. He struck out one.

EDGE Analysis

Hudson has now earned wins in his last two appearances as he continues to impress early in the year. The left-hander has allowed just one run over 13.1 innings while posting an impressive 0.60 WHIP and 13:2 K:BB. Hudson made six appearances with the Dodgers last season, working to a 7.27 ERA over 8.2 innings.
