Diamondbacks manager Chip Hale said Hudson will likely move into a late-inning role, Nick Piecoro of the Arizona Republic reports.
Analysis:Given the recent struggles of Jake Barrett and Enrique Burgos at the back end of the Arizona bullpen, the announcement makes sense. Hale said both Hudson and Randall Delgado could be used in high-leverage situations going forward. Hudson recorded 20 holds a season ago and has 17 in 2016, so he's probably the safer bet of the two to see save opportunities.
