Brewers Manager Makes Tough Roster Decision, Sends Valuable Reliever to AAA
In a surprising move, Brewers manager Pat Murphy had to have a difficult conversation with rookie relief pitcher Bryan Hudson on Tuesday morning. Despite being one of the team’s best and most reliable arms out of the bullpen this season, Hudson was informed that he was being optioned to Class AAA Nashville.
The decision was part of a series of bullpen transactions prior to the second game of a three-game series with the St. Louis Cardinals at American Family Field. Bryse Wilson was placed on the 15-day injured list with a right oblique strain, Elvis Peguero was recalled from Nashville, and Hoby Milner was activated from the injured list.
But the main focus was on Hudson, who has been a standout performer for the Brewers this season with a 1.73 earned run average in 62 ⅓ innings. However, the team had to take into consideration his workload and declining velocity as a result of his increased innings. Since becoming a reliever in 2019, Hudson’s previous career-high innings thrown was 64 ⅓ last season. This year, including his outings during a rehab assignment in early August, Hudson has already thrown 65 ⅓.
Despite his recent success, the team felt it was necessary to give Hudson a break and work on his mechanics. Murphy stated that the decision was made because Hudson has options and the team wants to get him back to his earlier season form. With a deep pitching staff, the Brewers have the luxury of sending Hudson down to AAA for a refresher.
Hudson, who has two minor-league options remaining, would not burn one if recalled by Milwaukee before spending 20 days in the minors. This move shows the team’s commitment to developing their young talent and making strategic roster decisions for the long-term success of the team.
