NY Post | Greg Joyce: Aaron Hicks’ season has been a rollercoaster worthy of 2021’s envy, featuring a few decent months interrupted by a couple of absolutely dreadful ones. His blunder in center field on Monday seemed to embody all of his current struggles in physical form, and he was on the bench Tuesday with the team looking for answers on what to do with him. One answer seemingly has floated to the surface, with reports that Estevan Florial will be called up today from Triple-A. Florial’s had a very solid season in Scranton but never gotten an extended look in the majors — now with Hicks’ abysmal performance and Harrison Bader’s rehab still ongoing it looks like he’ll finally get a chance to prove he can step up.
