Diamondbacks starting pitcher Daniel Hudson, who is on the 60-day disabled list recovering from Tommy John surgery, was pleased with his bullpen session Tuesday, according to The Arizona Republic.
"It felt good," Hudson said after throwing 30 pitches off a practice mound. “Surprisingly good. I might have been a little tentative at first, but once I got that feeling back in me, I just kind of took it and ran with it. It felt like there was a little bit of life to it. I threw a lot of strikes, which was good, as well, and definitely surprising. I wasn’t expecting anywhere near what I did. It was a step in the right direction.
General manager Kevin Towers said he was impressed with Hudson's command.
"Delivery looked good," Towers said. "Balance looked good. Threw strikes. Was free and easy. It was coming out of his hand well."
