Royals | Hudson elects free agency

MLB.com's Dick Kaegel reports Kansas City Royals P Luke Hudson has become a free agent after declining an outright assignment to Triple-A Omaha. However, the right-hander is still open to returning to the Royals. Hudson (shoulder) missed the entire 2008 season and didn't pitch much in '07 either due to shoulder surgery. He's been resting his shoulder since July and doesn't plan on throwing until mid-December. "I'll just go from there and keep my fingers crossed," said Hudson. "I feel really strong and my range of motion is great."
