Hill (2-2) turned in a solid outing Monday, holding the Cardinals to one run over five innings and striking out four in a 5-1 win.
This performance represented a marked improvement over his last start when he walked seven batters and allowed five runs. Hill told the Orange County Register that a mechanical adjustment led to Monday's improved control on the mound. Blister issues and inconsistency have diminished he 37-year-old's fantasy value, but his dominance last season should keep fantasy owners intrigued as they wait for the southpaw to put it all together. Hill will look to carry his success into his next start when he faces the Brewers on Saturday.
