The Los Angeles Dodgers to this point have only seen flashes of the Rich Hill they re-signed to a three-year, $48 million contract during the offseason. What has carried over from 2016 is the blister trouble the veteran left-hander missed significant time with.
Hill has already endured two stints on the 10-day disabled list this season. He got through five innings on Friday night, allowing one run on two hits to the Cincinnati Reds. But Hill also issued three walks, committed a throwing error, and had stretches of poor command.
“We had a lull for me committing and having aggressiveness,” Hill said.
