Hill is 43 years old, in his 19th big league season, and about to play for his 13th MLB team . He's earned the reputation as one of the game's great competitors and, while he's not going to light up the radar gun or throw a no-hitter, he's going to eat innings and that's something the Padres talented but thin starting rotation could really use.

San Diego sent lefty Ryan Weathers, a former 1st round pick who hasn't been able to find consistency at the big league level, to the Marlins for infielder Garrett Cooper and minor league pitcher Sean Reynolds. Cooper is a right-handed hitter who's shown power potential but had trouble staying healthy throughout his career with nine trips to the Injured List.
