BREAKING NEWS:
Aaron Hicks Hits New Yankees Low With 'Embarrassing' Performance Against Rays
...Hicks is under contract with New York until after the 2026 season. At a certain point—if not already—this club needs to assess where he fits on this big-league roster, though.
The Yankees acquired outfielder Harrison Bader from the Cardinals at the trade deadline, a candidate to play over Hicks in center field this October and into next season, but Bader is currently on the injured list (plantar fasciitis) and won't make his Yankee debut until next month at the earliest.
With New York reeling—2-10 since the deadline—the Yankees might consider promoting a player from Triple-A, giving them some playing time in an effort to provide a spark. Outfielder Estevan Florial has been swinging a hot bat all season in Scranton/Wilkes-Barre.

DO ME'S THOUGHTS: Hicks in his last 53 AB has only 5 Hits = Maybe he needs to eat some Mas Honey???
