With a pending club option decision roughly six weeks away, the Dodgers instead optioned to lock in Daniel Hudson for next year now. Los Angeles has signed the veteran reliever to a contract for 2023, with a club option for 2024, following a familiar pattern.
The Dodgers announced Hudson’s contract on Friday.
Hudson earned $6 million on his one year contract with the Dodgers this season, and had a $6.5 million club option for next year, with a $1 million buyout. Hudson’s new contract guarantees that $6.5 million for 2023, plus a similar club option for 2024.
The contract was first reported by both Jeff Passan of ESPN and Fabian Ardaya at The Athletic.
