Dodgers: Rich Hill nearing return; Alex Verdugo suffers setback

Wednesday there were some more injury updates involving the Dodgers and it was a mixed bag. For the good news, Rich Hill is going to throw to batters on Friday and if he comes out of that session feeling good to go, he will be activated next week and return to the Dodgers. Hill is expected to return in a relief role as he has not built his pitch count up.

Given the expanded rosters, the Dodgers could give Hill a start after a relief appearance or two and let him pitch two to three innings as they did with Julio Urias on Tuesday night.
