| Player Notes |
| December 16, 2004 The Braves acquired Tim Hudson from the A's in exchange for Charles Thomas, Juan Cruz and minor league prospect Dan Meyer. Hudson should benefit from moving to the National League, and working with pitching coach Leo Mazzone can't hurt. |
| December 8, 2004 The A's may have Tim Hudson on the trading block, according to the San Jose Mercury News. One recent rumor was a deal with the Braves that would send Marcus Giles to Oakland for Hudson. The Cardinals also are believed to be interested in Hudson. |
| December 2, 2004 Entering the final year of his contract, Tim Hudson has told the A's that if he doesn't have a new deal in place by March 1, he'll play out the year and leave as a free agent, according to the Oakland Tribune. |
| August 17, 2004 In just his third start since a six-week stint on the DL with a ribcage injury, Tim Hudson tossed a five-hit shutout Tuesday night in Baltimore. He struck out four and walked none, and he is now 8-1 with a 2.09 ERA in nine career starts against the Orioles. |
| August 9, 2004 Tim Hudson said his left oblique muscle felt fine Sunday, the day after returning to action, according to the Contra Costa Times. |
| August 7, 2004 As expected, Tim Hudson was activated from the DL in time to start Saturday's game. He gave up four runs off eight hits and a walk over 5 2/3 innings while picking up the loss against the Twins. |
| August 7, 2004 The A's still expect Tim Hudson to start today, according to the Contra Costa Times. He's been bothered by a strained left oblique and will be limited to no more than 90 pitches. |
| August 5, 2004 Tim Hudson will toss a bullpen session today and remains on target to start Saturday, according to the Contra Costa Times. A's manager Ken Macha said Hudson was "a little stiff" after Tuesday's simulated game. |
| August 4, 2004 The A's have decided against sending Tim Hudson out to the mound to start Thursday, according to the Contra Costa Times. They want him to get in one more rehab start before activating him, so he'll start Saturday, instead. "I feel sharp when I'm out there," Hudson said. "The tools are there. But endurance is an issue that's out there, obviously." |
| July 31, 2004 The A's expect Tim Hudson to be activated in time to start Thursday, according to the AP. He allowed two earned runs and two hits in three innings of work Saturday while on a rehab assignment. |
| July 29, 2004 Tim Hudson will be on a 90-pitch limit during Saturday's rehab start for Triple-A Sacramento, according to the AP. If all goes well, the A's expect to activate Hudson next week. |
| July 28, 2004 If all goes well with a rehab start on Saturday, Tim Hudson could be activated to start on Aug. 5 or Aug. 6, according to the San Jose Mercury News. |
| July 26, 2004 Tim Hudson threw 48 pitches to three hitters in a simulated game Monday. He used all of his pitches and came out of the session pain-free, though his command was a little off. He will throw a side on Wednesday or Thursday, then make a rehab start with Triple-A Sacramento on Saturday. He'll throw 70 pitches in that outing, then probably be activated. |
| July 24, 2004 Tim Hudson threw 35 pitches - all fastballs - in a side session on Saturday, according to the AP. He is scheduled to throw a simulated game on Monday and make a rehab start on July 31. |
| July 23, 2004 Tim Hudson will throw 30 pitches in the bullpen Saturday as he recovers from a strained left oblique muscle, according to the AP. He'll throw a simulated game Monday and another bullpen session Wednesday, with tentative plans to make a rehab start at Triple-A Sacramento on July 31. |
| July 23, 2004 The A's plan to have Tim Hudson toss a simulated game tomorrow, according to the San Jose Mercury News. If that goes well, he will then start a rehab assignment on Thursday, which could put him back in Oakland's rotation by August 3-5. |
| July 22, 2004 Tim Hudson threw from the top of a mound yesterday for the first time since going on the DL with a strained left oblique, according to the Contra Costa Times. "It felt real good," Hudson said. "Hopefully it won't be too much longer. I think I might be ahead of schedule. I feel like I've turned the corner." His next step is to throw a bullpen session on Saturday. |
| July 20, 2004 For the first time since going on the DL with a strained oblique, Tim Hudson threw off the front of a mound yesterday, according to the Contra Costa Times. He'll throw from higher up the mound on Thursday. Once ready to return to games, he may work relief for a bit to prepare for an eventual return to the rotation. |
| July 17, 2004 Tim Hudson might come back from the DL initially as a reliever to build up arm strength, according to the AP. He's been on the DL since June 23 with a strained left oblique muscle. |
| July 17, 2004 Tim Hudson reported no pain in his strained left oblique after doing some long-tossing yesterday, according to the Contra Costa Times. |
| July 15, 2004 Tim Hudson played catch Thursday, hoping for a speedy return from his sore oblique muscle, but the A's have not set a timetable for his return. |
| July 15, 2004 It appears the soonest Tim Hudson will return from his strained oblique is the end of the month, according to the San Jose Mercury News. |
| July 11, 2004 The A's aren't expecting Tim Hudson to make his scheduled start on July 19 because his strained left oblique muscle isn't fully healed, according to the Oakland Tribune. Kirk Saarloos will get the nod instead. |
| July 10, 2004 Oakland manager Ken Macha told the AP Saturday that he hopes Tim Hudson, on the DL with a strained side muscle, would be ready when the A's host Toronto on July 19th. |
| July 9, 2004 Tim Hudson will not take part in the All-Star game, but he will be around for the festivities, according to the Contra Costa Times. The decision came about because he has been told to not throw at all for the time being, as his strained oblique isn't healing quickly. He will need at least two bullpen sessions and a simulated game before being activated, so he likely will miss at least one more start after the break. |
| July 8, 2004 The A's have ruled Tim Hudson out of returning from his strained oblique to start this weekend, according to the Contra Costa Times. In fact, they are considering asking him to skip the All-Star game, too, so he can stay in the Bay Area to receive treatment. |
| July 7, 2004 Tim Hudson played long toss yesterday for the first time since going on the DL with a strained left oblique, according to the Contra Costa Times. Since he will have to get in at least two pain-free bullpen sessions before returning to action, he likely won't make his next start until after the All-Star break. |
| July 4, 2004 Although Tim Hudson reported lingering pain in his side during a throwing session yesterday, the A's still hope he will be able to start on Saturday, according to the San Jose Mercury News. |
| June 29, 2004 Tim Hudson has a target date of July 10 at Cleveland as his next start. He's currently on the DL with a strained left oblique muscle. He is undergoing treatment until he is pain-free, then will begin stretching and other rehab work. |
| June 26, 2004 The A's placed Tim Hudson on the 15-day disabled list Saturday with a strained left oblique muscle. The move is retroactive to June 23. He is expected to be out about two weeks. "It's not bad at all, a little mild strain," Hudson told the AP. "The only reason I'm going on the DL is so we can get it right and take care of it so it doesn't linger." |
| March 18, 2004 Tim Hudson will be the A\'s opening day starter next month, according to the AP. It will be the third time in the past four seasons that Hudson has earned that assignment. |
| February 27, 2004 Tim Hudson has implemented some new exercises to strengthen his midsection, according to the Contra Costa Times. He is hoping to avoid the left oblique strain that has surfaced in the playoffs each of the past two seasons. |
