Plans to continue career
Hill plans to continue his playing career in 2024, Rob Bradford of WEEI.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Hill made the revelation on Bradford's "Baseball Isn't Boring" podcast. The 43-year-old left-hander didn't have a great 2023 campaign, posting a 5.41 ERA, 1.52 WHIP and 129:58 K:BB over 146.1 innings for the Pirates and Padres. Hill will turn 44 shortly after Opening Day next year but should be able to find a club willing to give him a one-year contract.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Atlanta not after him
Atlanta is not interested in trading for Hill before the Aug. 1 trade deadline, Rob Bradford of WEEI.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Atlanta was mentioned as one of the teams that could be interested in Hill, but that is not the case, and the team is expected to search for upgrades elsewhere. The Marlins, Reds and Orioles have all been linked with a move for Hill before Tuesday's deadline, though, so he's still very likely to leave Pittsburgh in the coming hours.

Hill started 26 games last season for Boston, losing most of July with a knee issue. He averaged just under five innings per outing, but still managed to win eight games for the last place Red Sox. Much like Eddie Harris in Major League, Hill threw every piece of junk he could think of at 'em, save the snot. He'd flip his 88-mph fastball and 72-mph curveball to the plate from various arm angles. All things considered, his 13.7% K-BB wasn't terrible for the then 42-year-old southpaw. Hill finished the season on a high note, fanning 15 over his final two starts, each lasting six frames. He can help chew up innings for the Pirates after inking a one-year deal, but the days of being a fantasy asset are likely over, save for favorable matchups in deep leagues.
