Is Orlando Hudson willing to sit out?


Here's an interesting read by Ken Rosenthal of FOX Sports.com.

Middle infielders such as Orlando Hudson or Orlando Cabrera also could gain leverage if injuries leave certain clubs with holes, or if the Mets, Cardinals, White Sox and other clubs with infield questions finally decide to upgrade.

He continues, the further Hudson is removed from wrist surgery, the more attractive clubs might find him.

Here's something many folks are unaware of; Sheets, Hudson and Cabrera all are Type A free agents; as it stands, any team that signs them would forfeit a high draft pick. But, as first reported by ESPN's Buster Olney, draft-pick compensation vanishes after the June draft — all the more reason for certain Type As to hold firm.
