The Rockies
selected Hill's (hamstring) contract from Triple-A Albuquerque on Thursday.
ANALYSIS
Hill, a second-round pick in the 2021 First-Year Player Draft, became a full-time reliever this season and has posted a 4.57 ERA and 69:17 K:BB over 45.1 innings between Double-A Hartford and Albuquerque. He missed about two weeks in August with a right hamstring strain before being activated Aug. 31 and making two appearances for Albuquerque prior to getting his first MLB call-up. Hill has the potential to be a high-leverage reliever for the Rockies, but he will likely work in low-leverage spots initially.
