Here's what BP has to say about him:
The Cubs` system is rightly praised for the amount of pitching talent it cultivates, but Hill`s skill set probably perplexes even their pitching gurus. Although Hill finished first in the minor leagues in K/9 and third overall in total strikeouts, his velocity fluctuates from the high 80s into the low 90s, which is a huge difference if he`s going to make it as a starter. What he does exceptionally well is fool people with his curveball. The hope is that the addition of a cut fastball this past season will keep him from being sent over to the bullpen, but Hendry`s willing to wait and watch before slotting him one role or the other. That patience may be necessary, but Hill`s six months older than Mark Prior, so he really isn`t a young gun.
Considering Hill's age (27) I see this as a make or break season.
