PHOENIX (AP) — Orlando Hudson has reached an agreement on a one-year contract with the Los Angeles Dodgers, who would use the three-time All-Star to replace retired second baseman Jeff Kent.
The deal is contingent on Hudson's passing a physical, a person familiar with the negotiations said Friday, speaking on condition of anonymity because the Dodgers have not announced the agreement.
A three-time Gold Glove winner and .282 career hitter, Hudson had season-ending surgery on his left wrist during each of the past two years with the Arizona Diamondbacks.
His agreement was reported earlier by other media outlets.
