The Chicago White Sox saw their pitching staff surrender 14 runs to the Milwaukee Brewers on Opening Day. Additionally, White Sox pitchers issued 10 walks while the hitters struck out 20 times. Clearly, it was not the start the team was hoping for.
As they had an off-day on Friday, the White Sox started scouring the waiver wire for some pitching help. And they found it in the form of one of their own former pitchers.

On Friday, it was reported that Chicago has claimed left-handed reliever Bryan Hudson off of waivers from the New York Mets:
The Chicago White Sox have claimed left-handed pitcher Bryan Hudson off waivers from the New York Mets.
The White Sox will make a corresponding move prior to tomorrow’s game at Milwaukee.

Hudson was originally claimed off of waivers by the White Sox from the Brewers last year. Prior to being waived by Milwaukee, he was 0-1 with a 4.35 ERA. In four games with Chicago after being claimed, he was 0-0 with a 5.79 ERA.
In 2024, while pitching for Milwaukee, Hudson was one of the best relief pitchers in baseball. He appeared in 43 games, went 6-1, and a stellar 1.79 ERA.
As noted in the post from the White Sox social media team, Chicago will be making a corresponding move prior to Saturday’s game against Milwaukee. This means that Hudson will be joining the Major League roster while someone that is already on it will be demoted to Triple-A or designated for assignment.
It is worth noting that many of the hitters that gave the White Sox trouble on Thursday were left-handed.
