Hudson (forearm) was reinstated from the 10-day disabled list prior to Friday's game in Seattle, Ken Gurnick of MLB.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

As expected, Hudson will rejoin the active roster after the minimum 10 days due to right forearm tightness. The right-hander has appeared in 38 games for the Dodgers this year, logging a 3.92 ERA and 1.24 WHIP with 40 strikeouts across 43.2 innings. Look for the Dodgers to make a corresponding move in the coming hours.

Hudson (forearm) is expected to return from the 10-day disabled list Friday, Bill Shaikin of the Los Angeles Times reports.

EDGE Analysis

Hudson has been on the disabled list since Aug. 7 with forearm tightness, but he's been cleared to rejoin the Dodgers on Friday after getting through a simulated game with no issues Tuesday. The 31-year-old posted a 3.92 ERA across 43.2 innings prior to landing on the shelf.

Hudson (forearm) threw a simulated game Tuesday, Fabian Ardaya of The Athletic Los Angeles reports.

EDGE Analysis

Hudson faced Max Muncy, among others, as general manager Farhan Zaidi and pitching coach Rick Honeycutt looked on. He landed on the disabled list Aug. 7 with forearm tightness, but it seems like his stay could be an abbreviated one given the progress he's already made.

Hudson (forearm) played catch in the outfield prior to Thursday's game against the Rockies, Bill Plunkett of The Orange County Register reports.

EDGE Analysis

Hudson landed on the 10-day disabled list Tuesday due to right forearm tightness, but it's good to see that the issue hasn't stopped him from throwing for long. He plans to play catch again Friday, and he could pitch off a mound Saturday if all goes well. The 31-year-old reliever is eligible to return from the DL starting Aug. 17.

Hudson was placed on the 10-day disabled list Tuesday with right forearm tightness.

EDGE Analysis

Hudson has pitched only once in the last week -- a two inning effort Friday -- but it's unclear when the injury first cropped up. Switch-handed pitcher Pat Venditte joins the Dodgers from Triple-A to bolster their bullpen depth.

Hudson recorded two outs en route to his second hold Saturday against the Angels.

EDGE Analysis

Josh Fields (shoulder) and Pedro Baez (biceps) remain on the disabled list, making Hudson the Dodgers' defacto right-handed setup man. The 31-year-old owns a 3.34 ERA, 1.34 WHIP and 8.7 K/9 over 35 innings this season, and he should continue to see opportunities to rack up holds until the bullpen returns to full strength.

Hudson started Thursday's bullpen game, logging a scoreless inning and a strikeout in an 8-7 win over Pittsburgh.

EDGE Analysis

Thursday's projected starter Dennis Santana (lat) was scratched prior to first pitch, so Hudson ended up taking the bump in his stead. The scoreless outing lowered the veteran's ERA to 4.84 over 22.1 innings. Hudson was used as a starter earlier in his career, but Thursday's limited usage indicates that the Dodgers have no plans of exploring that option in the event Santana is unable to go for his next turn in the rotation.

Hudson will take the mound for Thursday's game against the Pirates, Bill Plunkett of the Orange County Register reports.

EDGE Analysis

Hudson is unlikely to make it into the middle innings of Thursday's game after appearing out of the bullpen during each of the past two days, but he was thrust into the starting spot after Dennis Santana was scratched just minutes before the first pitch. Through 17 appearances this year, Hudson has compiled a 5.06 ERA and 1.59 WHIP with a 17:11 K:BB in 21.1 innings of relief.

Hudson allowed two runs on four hits and a walk while striking out two over two innings of relief in Tuesday's loss to the Phillies.

EDGE Analysis

Starter Kenta Maeda was forced out of this one after just 1.2 innings of work with a hip strain, pushing the bullpen to work overtime Tuesday. Hudson now has a 6.35 ERA on the year to go along with just a 13:10 K:BB over 17 innings, so he will likely continue being deployed in lower-leverage situations.

Hudson's contract was selected from Triple-A Oklahoma City on Tuesday.

EDGE Analysis

This will mark Hudson's first stint in the majors this year. Last season, which he spent with the Pirates, Hudson posted a 4.38 ERA and 1.46 WHIP over 71 games (61.2 innings). His control was subpar, as his K:BB sat at a subpar 66:33. In a corresponding move, Walker Buehler was optioned to High-A Rancho Cucamonga.
