Wait… you thought he would make a difference? Lol. 

I mean, I expected him to not instantly become part of the problem.

He always has a day off after a Friday Night Apple TV game. Sometimes on Thursdays prior to the Friday night game as well. 

Listening to the Orioles feed. I cannot listen to O'NEAL butcher another broadcast.

Arte hired him. Thus he’s an extension of the problem. 

[Erstad Grit]

O-hoppe and Neto is our best 8-9 hitters we've had in a looooong while

[CaliAngel]

What if they just told him to not talk?

I would be fine with just Gubi and an empty chair, tbh.

Then I have to listen to Gubiza which is not much better. 

[CaliAngel]

Thanks Hicks...

[No Roles]

hicks does not look geared for major league pitching...how many innings till we get a guy in scoring position?

He makes me miss Phys and Hudler

[AngelsLakersFan]

I cant even read the names on the backs of the new jerseys... is there anything that isnt getting worse?

[Chuck]

Hicks hitting second ahead of Trout is proving to be an awful decision early on.

Dude even at the ST games...I have very good eyes, never had to wear glasses...sitting down the 3rd base side...could barely read the 3rd base coaches name.

You have MLB ditching Majestic and signing Nike to thank for that.

[Kendo36]

Ok, time to move on from the hicks experiment.

We can talk about Ron playing the guys he thinks will win him games, but the fact that hes put Hicks in the most influential spot in the lineup shows that there is a incorrect evaluation of talent taking place.

I know a lot of people hate on Hud, but I miss that duo all the time.

They used to actually shut the eff up...commentators these days seem to think they have to fill every second of "on air" with their stupid mouths.

Lol at anyone thinking Hud has ever shut up at any point in his life.

In all Hudler's goofiness, he taught the listener a lot about baseball

I didn’t mind Hicks leadoff since he can get on base and like Rendon he sees a lot of pitches too.
