Diamondbacks' Daniel Hudson: Avoids arbitration, signs with Arizona

Hudson and the Diamondbacks agreed to terms on a one-year, $2.7 million deal Friday, avoiding arbitration, Zach Buchanan of AZCentral.com reports.

Hudson appeared in 64 games last season, with 63 of those appearances coming out of the bullpen. The 28-year-old posted a 3.86 ERA to go with a 1.315 WHIP across 67.2 cumulative innings. He figures to return in a similar role next season, though he did state that he'd like to return to a starting role at some point.
