Never mind about Hicks, as he lets another hit fall fair in left, as he gives up on the ball. Why are they keeping this guy?

Hicks has had some issues with balls down the left field lines since last year…one adjustment that center fielders have to make when they move to left field…

If I'm Cashman, Torres would be shopped for a starter and pay for someone to take Donaldson. I'd live with both Volpe and Dominguez as starters. Hicks and Cabrera would be my bench guys. I’m thinking that Torres should bring back a solid #3 starter. Also, we have Cabrera there if either kid falters, so the risk is minimized…

Hicks has had some issues with balls down the left field lines since last year…one adjustment that center fielders have to make when they move to left field… He's played plenty of left field. He's just not a good defensive outfielder due to his lack of focus and penchant for giving up on balls.

Two very lousy shutouts being pitched to this point in the game…

Inger - have you noticed that baseball-reference seems to no longer allow free lookups for current and some retired players?

He's just not a good defensive outfielder due to his lack of focus and penchant for giving up on balls. Surprisingly little corner OF play for his career. Still enough that he should be past the point where we’d see repeat issues… 10 Seasons OF 843 772 687 6913.0 10 Seasons CF 654 614 561 5446.2 4 Seasons RF 121 69 57 681.0 5 Seasons LF 112 89 69 785.1 …

Tie game.
I didn’t think Ortega had the chops to be tried in CF. Not that anyone could have caught that rocket…
