Notes: Forst says A's won't just 'give away' Rich Hill

CLEVELAND Rich Hill has been ruled out for Sundays start, meaning the As will decide whether to trade the veteran left-hander without the benefit of him being showcased one more time in front of scouts from interested teams. Hill remains one of the most intriguing names on the market leading up to Mondays 1 p.m. non-waiver trade deadline. The As decided to pull the plug on Sundays start in a discussion Thursday night between general manager David Forst, manager Bob Melvin and head trainer Nick Paparesta.
