Royals Sign Rich Hill To Minor League Deal

  1. Hoping he gets to the majors even for just an inning so he can be even more clutch on Immaculate Grid.

    Veteran presence is helpful for some of our guys that’ll likely be starters for us in the majors in the next year or two, if not by the end of this year. I dunno, expected numbers weren’t great last year but maybe he’s a pinch long reliever if our bullpen needs it?

  2. If he plays for us, he will be close to his namesake Rich Hill Mo. Sorry, had to say that.

  3. Honestly I love it just for the vibes. Dick Mountain can play some ball with the boys and teach Ragans a few things while he’s here

  4. Rich Hill is 45 years old. Satchell Paige pitched 3 scoreless innings for our KC Athletics in 1965 and threw 3 scoreless innings. He was 59 years old.

  5. If he makes it up to KC, we’ll be team number 14. I assume he holds the current record, but I could be wrong. I know Mike Morgan has 12.

    Both good guesses if you’re ever stuck on [Immaculate Grid](https://www.immaculategrid.com/).

  6. I’m all for having aging players willing to serve as mentors and depth pieces in Omaha and Springdale. Could be a big deal to both teams down the line if we have to raid their pitching staffs at any point

  7. It makes me happy that there is still a dude who is older than me out there doing his thing.

  8. YES! Now we can finally say the Royals can also claim a part of his career – our Dick Mountain!
