Spring Training: Aaron Hill looks ready for opening day, but Blue Jays lose to Red Sox
Going into spring training, one of the biggest questions marks on the Blue Jays club was second-baseman Aaron Hill; would he be able to come back from a miserable 2010 season?

Dear Aaron Hill: Please don’t sink my fantasy team this year
Dear Aaron,
We’ve had a bit of a rollercoaster ride over the last couple of years. When I drafted you twice in 2009, nobody in either league even remembered who you were.

Speculation Sundays: Will the Jays pick up Aaron Hill’s contract options after ’11?
We’re just over a year into Alex Anthopoulos’ rebuilding plan for the Jays, and it’s staggering to see just how much the team has changed. The heart of the roster from JP Riccardi’s years are almost completely gone. Roy Halladay, Vernon Well, Alex Rios, Scott Downs, Lyle Overbay are all playing with other teams now; while a new core, led by newly-signed Jose Bautista, is...
