Description

Kenneth Jaden Hill (born December 22, 1999) is an American professional baseball pitcher for the Colorado Rockies of Major League Baseball (MLB). He played college baseball for the LSU Tigers.

Amateur career
Hill attended Ashdown High School in Ashdown, Arkansas, where he played baseball and football. In July 2017, he was invited and accepted an invitation to play in the Under Armour All-America Baseball Game at Wrigley Field. In 2018, his senior year, he went 7–0 with a 0.51 earned run average (ERA) and batted .540 with 11 home runs, winning the Arkansas Gatorade Player of the Year Award. He was selected by the St. Louis Cardinals in the 38th round of the 2018 Major League Baseball draft but did not sign, and instead attended Louisiana State University (LSU) to play college baseball for the LSU Tigers.

In 2019, Hill's freshman season at LSU, he made two starts and pitched two innings before undergoing collarbone surgery, forcing him to miss the remainder of the season. He was named the SEC Freshman of the Week in mid-February 2019 after pitching five scoreless innings with eight strikeouts in his debut against the Air Force Academy. Prior to the 2020 season, he was named an All-American by Collegiate Baseball Newspaper. He returned healthy in 2020, and began pitching out of the bullpen. He threw 11+2⁄3 scoreless innings before the season was ended early due to the COVID-19 pandemic. In April 2021, Hill suffered a torn ulnar collateral ligament in his right elbow that required Tommy John surgery, and was ruled out for the remainder of the season. Over seven starts before the injury, he went 2–3 with a 6.67 ERA and 25 strikeouts over 29+2⁄3 innings.
