Red Sox in Review: As terrible as he was in 2025, Jordan Hicks can be a weapon in 2026
Jordan Hicks produced poor 2025 results, but an elite 97.5 mph sinker with 17 inches of movement and a 68% ground-ball rate indicates likely positive regression.
"Football has given me more than I could have ever imagined. Purpose, discipline, brotherhood, and a platform to impact others. But most importantly it showed me who I am outside the game."
It seems that outing, which raised Hicks's ERA to 6.55 on the season, was the final straw for the Giants and convinced them that it was time to explore other options.
