Blue Jays All-Star second baseman Aaron Hill will come off the 15-day disabled list on Friday when the Jays travel to Tampa Bay to take on the Rays. Hill has been sidelined by a sore right hamstring since the first week of the season.
Hill is currently at the Blue Jays' Minor League complex in Dunedin, Fla., but did not play in any Minor League rehab games before his scheduled return. Instead, took part in extended Spring Training.
While Hill was a major contributor to the Blue Jays offense last season -- batting .286 with 36 HR and 108 RBIs -- the Jays have managed to cope without him, leading the league in numerous offensive categories.

Great news!
Hopefully all goes well. So much less concern than when he came back from that concussion...

Just as he predicted. I remember he said "next friday" in a pregame interview last week.

Awesome! Now we will have some extra punch in the lineup, and we can quit trotting out lineups that include Bautista AND Johnny Mac in the same lineup! Yay!
EDIT: It would also be nice if Snider got up to the Mendoza line. I'm sure he will, but it's hurting us to have that many guys hitting like canned ass juice.

should try a new lineup:
Lewis
Hill
Lind
Wells
Gonzalez
Snider
Bautista
Overbay
Molina/Buck
i think its balanced lefty/righty
