The Los Angeles Dodgers made a move ahead of their season opener against the San Diego Padres in Seoul, South Korea, by selecting the contract of right-handed pitcher Daniel Hudson from Triple-A Oklahoma City.
To create space on the roster, the Dodgers designated infielder Andre Lipcius for assignment on Saturday.
Hudson, aged 37, secured a $2 million, one-year contract.
He had one save in three appearances last season before suffering a season-ending sprain of his right MCL on July 5. He tore the ACL in his left knee on June 24, 2022, against Atlanta.
Over his 13-season career, Hudson has accumulated a record of 59-43 with a 3.79 ERA and 33 saves. He has played for various teams including the Chicago White Sox (2009-10), Arizona (2010-16), Pittsburgh (2017), the Dodgers (2018, 2022-24), Toronto (2019), Washington (2019-21), and San Diego (2021).
