Hill wasn’t bad in SF – he competed with A. Smith and a named guy O’Sullivan (who Martz clearly loved at one point and put ahead of both to start 2007. Singletary got tired of the Martz/O’Sullivan affair and started Hill. He wasn’t flashy but I though he could read the field and manage that team pretty well.
His arm seems a bit better than I remember. I kind of wish they would’ve start him a couple weeks earlier but I understand the whole riding the wave thing with Davis.
