Rich Hill Starting Wednesday Against Astros
2 years agoBoston Red Sox left-hander Rich Hill (knee) will start Wednesday's game against the Houston Astros instead of Brayan Bello. Hill was activated from the 15-day injured list on Monday, and he'll return to the starting rotation in a tough matchup against the first-place Astros. The 42-year-old veteran southpaw only threw three innings and 56 pitches in his only minor league rehab start, so fantasy managers shouldn't expect him to have a long leash in this one. The matchup alone should scare fantasy managers off. In 15 starts before his injury, Hill had gone 4-4 with a 4.20 ERA (4.05 FIP), a 1.29 WHIP and a 58:23 K:BB over 70 2/3 innings pitched. He's not a bad pickup in deeper leagues for rotation depth if he's available on the waiver wire.
