Despite a prognosis that won’t see him pitch until late spring at the soonest, veteran pitcher Rich Hill says that his free agent stock has still drawn interest from multiple teams across the majors.
According to reports, Hill underwent a type of surgery called a “primary revision” to his UCL following the 2019 season. Apparently, it’s a type of maintenance procedure that addresses re-injury for players who previously had Tommy John surgery. Hill initially went under the knife for his elbow back in 2011.
“This guarantees I’ll be back,” Hill said to Bill Plunkett of the OC Register earlier this week.
