Jeremy Deloney and Ron Shandler:
•Dan Hudson, RHP, Chicago White Sox: Hudson could pull the rare feat and pitch on every level from low-A to the majors in one season if he gets promoted within the next month. Relatively unheralded coming into the season, Hudson, 22, had a 2.28 ERA, 10 K/9 and 1.9 BB/9 in 23 starts. He has a large, durable frame that gives him the stamina to pitch deep into games. His improving repertoire consists of an 87- to 92-mph fastball that touches 94, slider, curveball and changeup. He pitches off of his fastball, and his slider acts as his strikeout pitch. Hudson could stand to upgrade his changeup in order to combat left-handed hitters, but his command and control should take him far.
•ETA: September
