Tim Hudson struggled through 3 2/3 innings on Friday, giving up six runs in a loss to the Giants.
Hudson has given up six runs in both of his losses this year, while never allowing more than three runs in any of his other six starts. He's not the ace he used to be, but he's still a safe bet to be useful in ERA, WHIP and victories. May 11 - 1:16 AM

Tim Hudson limited the Mets to three runs in 7 1/3 innings Sunday as the Braves picked up a 9-4 win.

Hudson had a clean line until David Wright slugged a two-run homer in the top of the fourth inning. An eighth-inning Mets rally then drove the veteran starter from the game. He's 4-1 with a 3.83 ERA and 1.13 WHIP.

Tim Hudson allowed one run over seven innings to pick up his 200th career win in the Braves' 8-1 victory over the Nationals on Tuesday.

Hudson helped his own cause with a solo home run, but the story of the game was his pitching. Hudson dominated over his seven innings, allowing just three hits while striking out six. Even at his age, Hudson remains a solid play in mixed leagues. He'll next get the Mets on Sunday.

Tim Hudson allowed three earned runs over six innings Wednesday in a no-decision against the Rockies.

Hudson was denied his 200th career win (and his first career victory at Coors Field) because Craig Kimbrel blew a save in the ninth. The veteran right-hander yielded a total of six hits and two walks while striking out three. He'll carry a 2-1 record, 4.50 ERA and 1.32 WHIP into his next outing against the Nationals.

Tim Hudson was hit hard in Friday’s loss to the Pirates, surrendering six runs on nine hits in four-plus innings of work.

Hudson also issued a pair of free passes and struck out two in the disappointing performance. Pedro Alvarez tagged Hudson for a two-run bomb as part of the three run second inning, then the Pirates added three in the fifth before chasing him from the game. Hudson now sits at 2-1 with a 4.09 ERA and 15/7 K/BB ratio through 22 innings on the season. He’ll look to get back on track when he takes on the Rockies in Colorado on Wednesday.

Tim Hudson spun seven innings of one-run ball in Saturday's 3-1 win over the Nationals.

The Braves are now 10-1 on the young season. Hudson was incredibly efficient, limiting the Nationals to four hits and zero walks while throwing 60 out of 90 pitches for strikes. The only run scored on a solo homer from Danny Espinosa in the fifth inning. Hudson has delivered consecutive solid starts after a shaky season debut and is worth using in all formats with a matchup against the Pirates next week.

Tim Hudson was removed after allowing three runs in 4 1/3 innings Monday against the Phillies.

Hudson was staked to a 4-0 lead in the third, but he gave up a homer to Chase Utley in the fourth and had to be replaced in the fifth, even with the Braves still holding the lead. Seemingly taking a toll was Ben Revere drawing an 11-pitch walk in the frame. With Hudson out, the win went to Luis Avilan, who pitched 1 2/3 scoreless innings after taking over.

Tim Hudson shut out the Nationals for six innings to win Thursday.

Hudson, named the Braves' Opening Day starter earlier in the day, scattered six hits, all of them singles, and struck out five. He's 2-1 with a 4.15 ERA this spring.

Tim Hudson will start for the Braves on Opening Day -- April 1 -- against the Phillies.

A nice honor for the 37-year-old righty. Hudson posted a solid 3.62 ERA and 1.21 WHIP over 179 innings in 2012 and should again carry mixed-league value in 2013. He will be followed in the Atlanta starting rotation by Paul Maholm, Kris Medlen, Mike Minor and Julio Teheran.

Tim Hudson was tagged for six runs in five innings by the Marlins on Sunday.

Hudson told the AJC's David O'Brien that although he feels great physically, his mechanics are off and he couldn't find his curveball today. He's now given up 10 runs in 14 innings this spring, but he still has three more starts to turn it around.

Tim Hudson pitched a pair of hitless innings Friday against the Tigers.

Hudson is healthy this spring after missing the first few weeks of 2012 following offseason back surgery. As a nod to his experience and history of success, he's expected to be the Braves' Opening Day starter.

Braves exercised RHP Tim Hudson's $9 million club option for 2013.

Another expected move. Hudson, 37, posted a 3.62 ERA and 102/48 K/BB ratio in 179 innings over 28 starts this season. He has expressed interest in staying with Atlanta beyond 2013.

Tim Hudson - S - Braves

The Braves are expected to exercise Tim Hudson's $9 million option for 2013, but the right-hander is hoping to remain with Atlanta beyond next season.

"I’d love to stay here," said Hudson. "Obviously for next year, but I’d love to stay here as long as they’ll have me. I understand a business is a business." Hudson is coming off a nice year, as he won 16 games while posting a 3.62 ERA and 1.21 WHIP. But, he'll turn 38 in the middle of next season, so the Braves might just wait it out before thinking about extending him.

The Braves are expected to exercise Tim Hudson's $9 million club option next season.

Hudson finished the 2012 season with a 16-7 record, 3.62 ERA and 102/48 K/BB ratio over 179 innings, so it's not surprising the Braves want him back. With Hudson's option likely to be exercised, Atlanta will be returning four of their top five starters. Kris Medlen, Mike Minor, and Tommy Hanson are all under contract.

Tim Hudson turned in a quality start in Friday's loss to the Mets, allowing three runs on five hits over his seven frames.

Hudson punched out four on the night while walking one. He cruised through the first six innings without any trouble, until Lucas Duda smashed a three-run homer with two-outs in the seventh. Hudson finishes the regular season with a 16-7 record, 3.62 ERA and 102/48 K/BB ratio over 179 innings. Should the Braves make it, he's likely to start the first game of a potential divisional series on October 7.
