2023 Fantasy Outlook
Hicks played in 130 games, but he only marginally improved from his disappointing 2021 campaign. His strikeout and walk rates were close to career norms, but he registered a career low average exit velocity while his Hard Hit rate and Barrel% both fell. To be fair, Hicks played with lingering calf and hamstring issues. When healthy, Hicks has been a starter throughout his tenure with the Yankees. With Harrison Bader acquired last year, Hicks will likely transition to a fourth outfielder role. His subpar batting average already limited his mixed league allure, but without regular playing time, Hicks is relegated to AL-only deployment. Read Past Outlooks

Starts in center field Friday
Hicks (calf) is playing center field and batting sixth Friday versus the Giants.
ANALYSIS
Hicks made an early exit from Wednesday's series finale against the Guardians due to a left calf cramp. All is well for the veteran outfielder heading into Baltimore's three-game weekend series at Oracle Park in San Francisco.

Injuries plagued Hicks once again during the 2021 campaign, as he was limited to 32 games by a wrist tendon injury, and he also struggled when healthy with a .627 OPS. He appears to be healthy for the start of spring training, but how long that lasts is the true question. Hicks is the favorite to start in center field since the Yankees haven't meaningfully addressed the position during the offseason, but his appeal heading into his age-32 season remains limited due to his consistent injury issues.
