Hill (hand) expects to start Sunday against the Blue Jays, Susan Slusser of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.

While the A's have yet to formally announce a starter for Sunday, Hill declared himself ready after a successful bullpen session Friday, and the team has every incentive to maximize his number of starts before the trade deadline. The 36-year-old showed no lingering effects from the groin injury that cost him over a month in his first two starts of July, allowing three runs on seven hits and four walks while striking out 16 in 12 total innings.
