Holden
Hudson

Hudson is a 5-foot-8, 160-pound two way player who performs a lot bigger than his size indicates. On the mound, Hudson comes from a ¾ arm slot with a quick, loose arm and has a long stride for his size; keeping momentum and down hill action on his pitches. He delivery is deceptive with repeatable mechanics. Hudson’s fastball sat 75-79 mph, topping at 81-mph with late arm side run and sink while continuously being thrown for a strike. His breaking ball (62-64 mph) was sharp and tight with late break, perhaps his best pitch. Hudson also threw a 66-68 mph change up with near fastball arm speed that had some cut action. In the outfield, Hudson shows good footwork to the ball, with a clean exchange and plays through, showing an accurate arm with a top throw of 78-mph. At the plate, the left handed hitter has a short, compact swing with a slightly uphill bat path and showed some pop for a player of his size. There was little wasted movement in his swing and his mechanics were repeatable.
