Latest on Pill from Rotoworld: Pill will make a spot start Wednesday in Los Angeles against the Dodgers. The Dodgers had planned to use Rafael Montero, but he was needed in relief Monday. Pill holds a 3.75 ERA and 8/4 K/BB ratio over four appearances — two starts — for the Mets this season.
Hill was lit up for seven runs in four-plus innings by the Indians on Thursday. The Dodgers talked about moving Hill to the pen because of his blister problems earlier this year. They might look at it again now because of his performance, which has been worse than Kenta Meada’s was. Hill has a 5.14 ERA, and he hasn’t lasted longer than five innings in any of his eight starts. His K/BB ratio sits at 35/23. He’ll probably get it together if he stays healthy, but he’s not one of the Dodgers’ five best starters at this moment.
