What It Means:

Hill will ultimately miss just one start with the blister, but there is always a chance for reoccurrence. Last season he was plagued with blister problems, limiting him to just 20 starts between Los Angeles and the Oakland Athletics. He will be worth starting everytime he can pitch but don't expect this to be the last time Hill has a blister problem this season.

Hill is 1-0 this year, tossing five innings of one-run ball with five strikeouts in his only start of the season.
