Hudson, Twins agree to one-year deal: Second baseman Orlando Hudson and the Twins agreed Thursday night to a $5 million, one-year contract. Hudson gives the Twins a veteran at the top of the batting order with a .282 career average and four Gold Glove awards. He played in his second All-Star game last season, his only year with the Dodgers after four with the Blue Jays and three with the Diamondbacks.

Fantasy Analysis
Hudson, who will likely bat second, will form an all-new double-play tandem for the Twins with shortstop J.J. Hardy, who came in an earlier offseason trade from the Brewers. He batted .283 with 35 doubles, six triples, nine homers and 62 RBI in 551 at-bats for the Dodgers last year, but a late-season slump forced him to surrender his job to Ronnie Belliard. He doesn't offer much power or speed, but he's a solid enough all-around performer to suffice as a middle infielder or backup second baseman in mixed leagues. Just beware of his injury risk at age 32.
