Hill's start was pushed back to Saturday after the Pirates' matchup Friday with the Nationals was postponed, Jessica Camerato of MLB.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Hill will now toe the rubber for one of the Pirates' two contests Saturday during a doubleheader against Washington. The left-hander will look to continue his hot stretch after posting a 2.12 ERA and 1.41 WHIP with 14 strikeouts in 17 innings over his last three outings.

Hill (2-2) earned the win Saturday, allowing one run on six hits and three walks over five innings against the Reds. He struck out seven.

EDGE Analysis

Hill has now allowed just two runs over his last 11 innings pitched. The southpaw is currently the oldest player in the league at 43 years old, but has still been a reliable presence this season. He has allowed three or fewer runs in all but one of his five starts this season, but he gave up seven runs in that exception. That has his ERA at a pedestrian 4.85 through 26 innings.

Hill (1-2) yielded one run on six hits and two walks over six frames Monday. He struck out seven and earned a win in Colorado.

EDGE Analysis

Hill escaped a bases-loaded jam in the first inning and set the tone for a strong outing Monday. He worked around danger throughout the night and the only damage against him was Kris Bryant's solo homer. Hill's seven strikeouts tied a season best after punching out just one batter over his last 10 frames and he racked up double-digit whiffs for the first time in 2023. Hill is lined up to face the Reds at home this weekend.

Hill (0-2) took the loss Wednesday against Houston, surrendering two earned runs off five hits and two walks across six innings with zero strikeouts.

EDGE Analysis

Hill gave up an RBI double to Jose Abreu in the third inning and a solo home run to Corey Julks in the fourth. While Wednesday's start was the best of the year for the 43-year-old lefty, a lack of run support from his offense caused Hill to take his second loss of the young season. Hill now sits on a 7.20 ERA in 2023 and has just one strikeout over his last two starts (10.0 IP), putting a severe cap on his fantasy value beyond the deepest of leagues.

Hill yielded seven runs on eight hits over four frames during Friday's win over the White Sox. He struck out one and did not factor in the decision.

EDGE Analysis

Fortunately for Hill, Pittsburgh's offense caught fire and prevented him from taking an ugly loss. He gave up three long balls, including two to Luis Robert. Hill has now been tagged with 10 runs (five homers) with an 8:3 K:BB through nine frames. He's currently lined up for a tough home matchup against Houston next week.

Hill (0-1) took the loss Saturday, allowing three runs on three hits and two walks over five innings against the Reds. He struck out seven.

EDGE Analysis

Opposing pitcher Nick Lodolo labored in the first inning but ended up outpitching Hill to spoil the veteran's Pirates debut. While the seven strikeouts look okay, Hill only induced six swinging strikes on 84 pitches, and he served up a pair of home runs. The 43-year-old southpaw is now with his 12th different major-league team and looking to ride his trademark curveball to one more winning season. It will be tough on this Pirates team, but he did it last year (8-7) for a last-place Red Sox club.

Hill (illness) will start Monday's Grapefruit League game against the Twins.

EDGE Analysis

Hill was uncertain to make another appearance in the Pirates' spring slate after he was scratched ahead of his scheduled outing Sunday versus Atlanta due to the illness, but the veteran southpaw apparently feels well enough a day later to take the mound. JT Brubaker had been scheduled to start Monday but was scratched due to a forearm issue that will result in him opening the campaign on the 15-day injured list. As a result, Hill is now tentatively lined up to start the Pirates' second game of the regular season Saturday in Cincinnati.

Hill has been scratched from Sunday's Grapefruit League today against Atlanta due to illness, Justice delos Santos of MLB.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Hill will miss Sunday's start against Atlanta, and Wil Crowe will be on the bump in his place. The left-handed hurler should be fine for the regular season barring something unforeseeable.

Hill has allowed one earned run on three hits and two walks while striking out four across five innings of Grapefruit League action.

EDGE Analysis

Hill signed a one-year deal with the Pirates over the winter and was brought on in part to mentor the team's young starting staff. However, so long as he is healthy, Hill should be a consistent member of the rotation. He's looked fairly sharp early in camp and will be looking to improve on the 4.27 ERA and 1.30 WHIP that he posted across 124.1 innings in 2022.

Hill signed a one-year, $8 million contract with the Pirates on Tuesday, Jeff Passan of ESPN.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Hill is coming off a season with the Red Sox which saw him put up a 4.27 ERA and 1.30 WHIP with 109 strikeouts over 124.1 innings covering 26 starts. He'll turn 43 in March but has remained mostly effective in recent years, albeit with a drop in strikeout rate. Hill will be a candidate to be traded to a contender at the deadline if he's healthy and pitching well.
