Hill (blister) could get the start Sunday against the Indians after throwing a bullpen Tuesday without a bandage on his finger, Jane Lee of MLB.com reports.
Hill tossed 20 pitches without any covering on his finger in the bullpen, and followed that up by throwing 50 more during batting practice with a bandage over the finger. Manager Bob Melvin left open the possibility of Hill pitching during the weekend, with Sunday being the most likely scenario. Hill is still being valued as a potential trade candidate and Sunday's game would fall on July 31, just a day before the deadline.
