Rays Hire Joe Hudson, Beau Sulser In Player Development Roles
"Hudson began his pro career as a sixth-round pick for the Reds in the 2012 draft, and his MLB career consisted of 19 games over parts of four seasons. The catcher suited up for the Angels, Cardinals, and Mariners during the 2018-20 seasons, and after three full years in the minors, Hudson returned to the Show for a single appearance with the Mets during the 2024 campaign. Over Hudson's 33 plate appearances, he hit .167/.219/.200 with one double and one RBI."
"Sulser never played for Tampa during his 12 pro seasons, though there is a family connection by way of his older brother Cole, who is in his second stint in a Rays uniform. Beau was a 10th-round pick for the Pirates in the 2017 draft, and the right-hander spent the majority of his career with Pittsburgh over four different stints with the organization."
Hudson and Beau Sulser joined the Tampa Bay Rays' player development staff, marking transitions from active playing to organizational roles. Hudson was a sixth-round Reds pick in 2012 who appeared in 19 major-league games across parts of four seasons. The catcher played for the Angels, Cardinals and Mariners from 2018–20 and made a single Mets appearance in 2024, hitting .167/.219/.200 in 33 plate appearances with one double and one RBI. Hudson spent multiple minor-league seasons with several organizations, including 2022 at Triple-A Durham. Sulser, a 2017 10th-round Pirates pick, logged 12 pro seasons and brief MLB work in 2022.
