News about Rich Hill

Despite their miserable season, the 52-55 San Diego Padres are still in on 2023. According to ESPN, the middling National League team has reportedly reached an agreement to draft first baseman Ji Man Choi and veteran starting pitcher Rich Hill from the Pittsburgh Pirates ahead of Tuesday's 6 p.m. trade deadline. According to reports, Pittsburgh would get first baseman Alfonso Rivas and a pair of minor leaguers: Jackson Wolf and 17-year-old outfielder Estuar Suero. The Padres' decision is significant, not only because it includes two veteran veterans, but also because it indicates San Diego's intent to compete for a pennant this season rather than selling off veterans to reduce salary and increase prospects. The Padres' payroll has more than half of all franchises outside of New York's Mets and Yankees, with the addition of Boston Red Sox slugger Xander Bogaerts on the offseason.

Senator John Fetterman of Pennsylvania - who was elected despite suffering a stroke during his campaign - sparked new health concerns when questioning a Silicon Valley Bank executive on Capitol Hill on Tuesday. Fetterman, who was hospitalized with depression, was just recently back to Congress to grill bank CEO Greg Becker. He often stuttered and struggled to explain that not only was the bank risky, but that taxpayer funds were being bailed out.

Rich Hill, the right-handed pitcher for the Pittsburgh Pirates, has agreed to a one-year, $8 million contract and has now become the oldest player to play in MLB next season. Hill, who played for the Boston Red Sox last season, was his 12th major league team in 19 years. He had a 4.27 average and had become something of a five-inning maestro. Hill's signing would bring a young Red Sox bullpen with right-handers Mitch Keller, Roansy Contreras, Luis Ortiz, and Johan Oviedo.

You don't want to be a part of the record books every single day. You may have been caught on a few websites for reasons due to something you did not do. At other times, you're in possession of the record books because you encouraged someone else to write their name. Take Mike Bacsik for example. Who is Mike Bacsik you may ask? Well, he was the pitcher on the Washington Nationals, who gave up a record-breaking 756th home run to Barry Bonds. After facing Aaron Judge on the verge of tying a record-tying 61st home run on Wednesday night in the Bronx, Pittsburgh Pirates pitcher Eric Stout was determined not to be another Mike Bacsik.
