Hill (knee) is scheduled to make a rehab start Thursday for Double-A Portland, Alex Speier of The Boston Globe reports.
EDGE Analysis
Hill is expected to throw around four innings in the rehab outing, and the Red Sox will likely see how his knee is feeling after a bullpen session over the weekend before deciding on his next steps. Depending on how he fares in the rehab start, Hill could be activated from the 15-day injured list and slot back into the rotation as soon as next Tuesday's game in Houston. If he's activated for the series with the Astros, however, Hill would likely be on a limited pitch count.

Hill (knee) will likely begin a rehab assignment Wednesday, Alex Speier of The Boston Globe reports.
EDGE Analysis
Hill threw a three-inning simulated game Friday and felt good a day after, so he'll likely return to game action with a minor-league affiliate this week. The left-hander has been on the injured list since July 2, and it's possible that he'll be cleared to rejoin the Red Sox after just one or two rehab starts.

Hill (knee) felt good Saturday after throwing a three-inning simulated game Friday, Christopher Smith of MassLive.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Hill will throw a bullpen session Sunday, then the Red Sox will decide on next steps for the left-hander. He and Michael Wacha (shoulder), who will throw a simulated game Monday, are on the injured list, which has contributed to the disarray in Boston's faltering rotation.

Hill (knee) will throw a bullpen session Sunday and could begin a rehab assignment soon, Jen McCaffrey of The Athletic reports.
EDGE Analysis
Hill threw a three-inning simulated game Friday and will throw off a mound two days later. If the left-hander is able to begin a rehab assignment this week, he'll likely be in the mix to rejoin the Red Sox sometime in early August.

Hill (knee) threw a 25-pitch bullpen session Thursday, Chris Cotillo of MassLive.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Hill keeps hitting checkpoints, first throwing off flat ground followed by a bullpen session. It's unknown if the lefty will need a rehab assignment, but one is likely given that Hill hasn't thrown in a game environment in two weeks.

Hill (knee) is scheduled to throw a bullpen session Thursday, Jen McCaffrey of The Athletic reports.
EDGE Analysis
The veteran left-hander returned to throwing off flat ground last week after a brief shutdown due to the knee sprain, and he'll progress to mound work Thursday. Hill landed on the shelf July 2 with the injury, and it's unclear if he'll require a minor-league rehab assignment before rejoining the Red Sox's rotation after the All-Star break.

Hill (knee) threw off flat ground Wednesday, Pete Abraham of The Boston Globe reports.
EDGE Analysis
Hill was placed on the 15-day injured list Saturday, and it was encouraging to see him throw shortly after sustaining his injury. He said that his knee felt good following his throwing session, and it seems as though he's trending toward a relatively brief IL stint.

Hill (knee) was placed on the 15-day injured list Saturday, Pete Abraham of The Boston Globe reports.
EDGE Analysis
The results of Hill's MRI have not been disclosed, so the extent to which he injured his left knee in Friday's game remains uncertain. His initial diagnosis was a left knee sprain. Phillips Valdez was recalled to take Hill's spot on the active roster for the time being.
