Hill (finger) is scheduled to throw a three-inning simulated game at Dodger Stadium on Saturday, David Vassegh of 570 LA Sports reports.

It's the next step in the path to recovery for Hill, who has missed the better part of April while recovering from a blister injury. The southpaw could return to action as a long reliever, though that decision likely won't be made by manager Dave Roberts until he's good to go. Hill has dealt with blister injuries throughout his career, limiting his overall effectiveness as a starter.
