Hudson has allowed 23 hits and nine walks in 22 innings this season with an ERA of 6.04.
EDGE Analysis
After starting the season as the primary set-up man for manager Clint Hurdle, Hudson has watched his stock drop throughout the season as he struggles to adjust to his first season away from Arizona since 2010. Even excluding his disaster of a game in Miami when he gave up five runs and only recorded one out, his ERA is still frightfully high at 4.09. The game against Miami certainly inflated his stats, but underneath that blunder sits a pitcher who has had trouble holding his own in Pittsburgh's bullpen.
