The Minnesota Twins have been known for their low-risk, high-reward gambles in recent history and this offseason, they rolled the dice one more time with the signing of veteran pitcher Rich Hill. The 40-year old is enjoyed one of the more productive stretches of his career with the Los Angeles Dodgers but underwent elbow revisionment surgery this past winter in an effort to avoid Tommy John surgery.
Those words can’t be encouraging for a Twins team that has sought out “impact pitching,” but his latest update on his recovery is cause for optimism.
