The White Sox released Hill on Tuesday. Hill cleared waivers after being designated for assignment and is now free to sign with another organization. The veteran reliever posted a 5.87 ERA and 13:10 K:BB over 23 innings for the White Sox this season.

Hill (finger) was non-tendered by the Padres on Friday, Jeff Sanders of The San Diego Union-Tribune reports. Hill required surgery in late September to repair ligaments and clean up scar tissue in his left ring finger, though he is expected to be ready for the start of spring training in 2024. The 33-year-old lefty reliever should be able to find a new home in free agency.

The Padres placed Hill on the 15-day injured list Monday with a sprained left ring finger. San Diego placed Hill on the IL with the same injury Aug. 2 prior to activating him when the roster expanded from 26 to 28 on Sept. 1, but the veteran southpaw made just three appearances out of the bullpen before suffering an apparent setback. The Padres selected the contract of right-hander Nick Hernandez from Triple-A El Paso to fill Hill's spot in the bullpen.

The Padres reinstated Hill (finger) from the 15-day injured list Friday. A sprained left ring finger sent Hill to the injured list in early August. He looked shaky during his first rehab appearance, coughing up five earned runs in two-thirds of an inning at Single-A, but he managed to regroup and throw a scoreless frame in Triple-A on Wednesday. He'll return to the Padres' bullpen as a depth piece for the final month of the season.

Hill (finger) will throwing a simulated game Tuesday, MLB.com reports. Assuming he gets out of the session with no complications, Hill should be cleared to resume a rehab assignment. The left-handed reliever won't require too many rehab appearances before being activated, so a late-August return is on the table.
