Hickey Discusses Hendricks’ Mechanical Flaws, Quintana’s Shoulder Fatigue, Darvish’s Timline

Cubs pitching coach Jim Hickey joined 670 The Score’s Mully and Hanley Show — which in this case was actually hosted by Barry Rozner and Joe Ostrowski — Thursday morning to discuss all the things within his purview. Unlike the coachspeak you usually get in this situations, Hickey is more or less an open book. And while that’s great for radio, I often wonder whether the Cubs really like it.
