Mets Trade for LHP Bryan Hudson to Bolster Left-Handed Bullpen Depth

He reports to Port St. Lucie to compete for a role after a 2025 dip.

Overview

  • The Mets acquired the 28-year-old left-hander from the White Sox for cash considerations.
  • A 40-man roster spot was cleared by placing reliever Reed Garrett on the 60-day injured list.
  • Hudson dominated in 2024 with Milwaukee, posting a 1.73 ERA over 62.1 innings, then regressed in 2025.
  • He is out of minor league options and will try to earn a bullpen job in spring training.
  • Projection models such as Steamer and FanGraphs’ Depth Charts peg him near league average for 2026.
