Tim Hudson said Friday that there's no basis to Peter Gammons' report that the veteran right-hander has told former teammates that he thinks he could be traded. Hudson brought up the subject unprovoked after he was asked about it by some of his current teammates. It was a strange rumor to begin with, as a contending team like the Braves appears likely to keep their rotation depth rather than attempt to spin it off for other parts. Hudson also added that he has been bothered by a neck issue for the past six weeks or so, but doesn't consider it a big deal.
