Added to roster The Rockies selected Hill's contract from Triple-A Albuquerque on Thursday.

Impact Hill, a second-round pick in the 2021 First-Year Player Draft, became a full-time reliever this season and has posted a 4.57 ERA and 69:17 K:BB over 45.1 innings between Double-A Hartford and Albuquerque. He has the potential to be a high-leverage reliever for the Rockies, but Hill will likely work in low-leverage spots initially. When/if he gets into a game, it will be Hill's major-league debut.

Shifts to relief role Hill has transitioned to a relief role for the Rockies, Thomas Harding of MLB.com reports.

Impact Hill was selected in the second round of the 2021 draft but did not make his debut until 2022 due to recovery from Tommy John surgery. He worked as a starter thereafter and reached High-A Spokane in 2023, but the Rockies ultimately decided to shift him to a relief role during the Arizona Fall League. With a fastball that regularly hits 99 and 100 mph, Hill has the potential to work in a high-leverage role at some point in his professional career.
