Rich Hill Updates?

What's the deal with this guy recently? He's taking up valuable space on my bench. Is he going to be in the minors for the foreseeable future?

I think he's on the DL in the minors. Things aren't lookig so great for him these days...

You probably won't see him until he puts together a string of 3-4 QS or even dominant starts. Pinella has no patience with him.

[Return of the King]

it has been six days since the threw 50 pitches on the side.
any news?

[claudish21]

He's pitching tonight for the Iowa cubs

[IrishDrunk]

Pinella has no patience with him.

What's up with that? Did he run over Pinella's dog or fool around with his wife or something?

[ha_jai]

No idea at all. Nothing on the news radio as to why Pinella treats Hill like crap.

[wildbill]

Why do you think Lou wanted out of Tampa a couple seasons ago? He hates young players, and has zero patience for them if they don't perform like solid 10 year veterans and I think the Cubs front office shares those feelings.

not a good night tonight. 3BB..Lou will not like that. in only 3 innings.

For the other 29 MLB teams, Hill really should be a buy low candidate. With Pinella and supposedly the front office thinking he's crap, other teams could dangle two bags of baseballs and probably be able to grab him.

Unless there's something wrong that's common insider MLB knowledge.
