Hicks Struggles, Giants Fall to Braves 3-1
by Jesse Garcia | Giants Correspondent | Thu, Jul 4th 8:22am EDT
Jordan Hicks allowed three earned runs over five innings in a 3-1 loss to the Braves on Wednesday.
Fantasy Impact:
He surrendered eight hits and two walks while striking out six. Despite a decent strikeout count, Hicks's performance was marred by allowing too many baserunners, which has been a recurring theme reflected in his season WHIP of 1.32. His ERA nudged up to 3.47, and while his K/9 remains respectable, the lack of wins, saves, or holds limits his fantasy appeal in standard formats. Hicks's inconsistency, highlighted by a FIP of 4.13 that suggests some underlying struggles, makes him a risky play in all but the deepest of leagues.
