On a 4 year deal it is much closer then you think. He is coming off back to back season ending injuries and is on the wrong side of 30. He doesn't have power and his speed is bleh. Not an impact player and if he wants to play here for 1/10 or 2/18, then I would listen. Otherwise I am not interested. “gina

He's a good player but he has no power and will cost a draft pick. Already lost the first rounder... we need to restock the farm system too. Why are people over valuing Hudson so much?

He would be the perfect utility guy to replace Easley and could take over 2B if we ever dump Castillo. The guys only 32 so it's not like he's old. But I expect him to be in high demand. If we can't get him then Grudzy would be another good option for that back up IF role. Eduardo

Which is basically what Hudson is. So sweeptheleg you’d rather have a more expensive version of Castillo? Which is basically what Hudson is.
