Scouting Report: Tim Hill

Summary

Tim Hill, 36-year-old veteran left-handed reliever in his third season with the Yankees, has been the team's steadiest bullpen arm through the first six weeks of the 2026 season. However, his reliable run was interrupted in early May when he made a costly throwing error in a 10-inning loss to Milwaukee, attempting to cut down a lead runner at third base on a routine comebacker instead of throwing to first, which loaded the bases and led to a walk-off sacrifice fly. Hill has over 450 career relief appearances across four teams (Royals, Padres, White Sox, Yankees) and credits his foundation to his time at Bacone College (2013-2014).
