Tim Hudson says next season will probably be his last.

The right-hander, 39, reached and won the World Series in his 16th Major League season. He plans to fulfill his $23 million, two-year contract with the San Francisco Giants, then possibly call it a career.

"I have one more year left on my contract, so I'm pretty sure that's going to be it after this season," Hudson said. "I just started my workouts yesterday, which is kind of crazy to me. Just two weeks ago I was still playing and here I am having to get back ready for next season again.

"I guess that's the price you pay when you play that late into the season come playoff time. But I'm going to work my tail off this offseason to get ready to go on to spring training in as good a shape as I can be and hopefully finish [next] season strong. It's been an unbelievable career for me."
