Hudson, who tore the ACL in his left knee during Friday’s game, will have surgery that will sideline him six to nine months and hamper the Dodgers’ bullpen
ATLANTA — Daniel Hudson had his worst suspicions confirmed Saturday morning. He tore the anterior cruciate ligament in his left knee and the veteran reliever won’t be pitching for the Dodgers again this season.
A long rehab is unfortunately a familiar road for the 35-year-old Hudson, who has returned from two Tommy John surgeries to forge a 13-year career in the major leagues – a career that includes throwing the final pitch of the 2019 World Series for the Washington Nationals. Moving on without him will be challenging for a Dodgers’ bullpen that has already been trying to absorb the losses of Blake Treinen and Tommy Kahnle, among others. Both are optimistically projected to return at some point in the second half. But acquiring bullpen help before the Aug. 2 trade deadline became a higher priority when Hudson dropped to the ground Friday night.
The Dodgers could add a number of relievers internally in the second half. Treinen is projected to return from his shoulder injury in August. So is Kahnle who just began a throwing program. Lefties Danny Duffy and Victor Gonzalez have begun throwing bullpen sessions and could also return in the second half.
