Colorado Rockies prospects: No. 12, Jaden Hill

12. Jaden Hill (391 points, 20 ballots)

Jaden Hill represented a top-five talent entering his junior year at LSU in 2021 due to an elite pitch arsenal. Unfortunately for the righty starter, his draft year didn’t go as planned. Hill was limited to 29 23 innings pitched by an elbow injury that required Tommy John surgery. The injury and some inconsistent command issues during the 2021 season led the 22-year-old to drop out of the first round altogether, where the Rockies selected him 44th overall in the second round and signed him to a slot bonus of $1.
