"Sure, it could be a possibility. This guy, he's so dominant and his ball has so much life. And you see the velo(city) is there. I love the kid, I love the story and I think the sky is the limit for him as long as he stays healthy, whether it's in the 'pen or it's in the rotation."

- Derrick Hall on Daniel Hudson

"We're fine. I think both teams want go compete. Both teams are trying to win games. All that other stuff is just 'BS.' We're just going to play."

Hall: 'Possibility' Daniel Hudson could be a starter again - Arizona Sports 620

Three games into the season, the Arizona Diamondbacks are about what people expected -- a very capable offensive team with a very shaky starting rotation. Arizona's three starters -- Josh Collmenter, Rubby De La Rosa and Jeremy Hellickson -- combined to throw just 14.1 innings, allowing 13 earned runs while striking out 11 and walking five. The San Francisco Giants hit .409 off of them, while they posted a 1-2 record. It's early, yes, and no doubt more will need to be seen from the rotation before anyone thinks of making any changes. But if it gets to that point, one option could be Daniel Hudson.
