When the Los Angeles Dodgers placed Rich Hill on the 10-day disabled list a second time this month, there were few answers on what to expect or what lied ahead. The only certainty appeared to be that Hill would this time miss more than 10 days.
Since landing on the DL, Hill has regularly continued to play catch prior to games. That seemed to suggest the Dodgers are against completely shutting down the 37-year-old.
On Saturday, Hill advanced to throwing a bullpen session while wearing a band-aid, and he’ll next attempt to pitch without the bandage, according to Ken Gurnick of MLB.
