ORLANDO HUDSON RUMORS

White Sox's Hudson gets his first look at third base

Orlando Hudson didn't get the starting nod after officially joining the White Sox on Tuesday, but thanks to the Minnesota Twins blowing out Chicago by a 9-2 score, Hudson got in the game. The 34-year-old veteran singled in his lone at-bat, and he made his first-ever major league appearance at third base. Hudson was told after the loss that he would start at third base Wednesday...

Chicago White Sox Notes: Hudson, Morel, Viciedo

The Chicago White Sox have signed second baseman Orlando Hudson after he was released by the San Diego Padres.  The move gives the White Sox flexibility in the infield.  The 34-year-old Hudson hit .211/.260/.317 in 35 games with San Diego this season, he did have 5 triples on the season.

Tigers Could Be Interested In Orlando Hudson, But He Likely Wouldn't Solve Team's Problems

Orlando Hudson was designated for assignment and then released from the San Diego Padres late this week, making him available for any team to sign. The Tigers have struggled to get any sort of prodction out of the second base position so far this season, so I wouldn't be surprised if they decided to kick the tires on the veteran second sacker.Hudson has won four gold gloves...

Defense and Gold Gloves: Orlando Hudson

That's way cooler than "O-Dog.") His defense presents another lens through which to examine the way defensive reputations, offensive production, and...

Could Orlando Hudson Be the Second Base Solution?

Earlier today, the San Diego Padres finally began the process of unconditionally releasing second baseman Orlando Hudson. He’d hit .211/.260/.317 across 131 plate appearances, which is lousy production even after adjusting for the PETCO Park effects. But for the previous nine seasons, he’d been as steady a second baseman as there is. Nine consecutive seasons of average...
