The minor injury could have a major impact on the season, which is why the Dodgers will be holding their collective breath when Hill throws a bullpen session Tuesday. And they didn’t, sending three second-tier pitching prospects to the Athletics in exchange for solid upgrades in Hill and Reddick. Hill, who was 9-3 with a 2.25 earned-run average with the Oakland Athletics, should help — provided he can pitch. “The biggest thing, even right now, is staying in the moment from day to day,” he said. If Hill emerges from his bullpen session unscathed, he will start Friday against the Pittsburgh Pirates.
