In 2019, right-hander Dakota Hudson showed the potential to become a long-term fixture in the St. Louis Cardinals' starting rotation.
He finished the season 16-7 with a 3.35 ERA and was fifth in National League Rookie of the Year voting. But Hudson needed Tommy John surgery in 2020, and he has struggled to regain his pitch command since.
Hudson spent much of the season pitching at Triple-A Memphis, where he went 5-4 with a 6.00 ERA across 11 starts. He got a chance to move into the rotation after the Cardinals traded starting pitchers Jordan Montgomery and Jack Flaherty before the trade deadline."I don't feel I ever missed confidence," Hudson said. "But definitely having some results behind it kind of helps iron that out a little bit.
The A's called up fellow right-hander Spenser Watkins to replace Tarnok. They claimed Watkins off waivers from the Houston Astros on Aug. 8 and promoted him before he could appear in a game for Triple-A Las Vegas.
