Pitcher Jordan Hicks hasn’t pitched in two years, but he is back for the Cardinals this spring. Word is, he is already impressing the coaching staff.
The return of Jordan Hicks, the St. Louis Cardinals‘ flame throwing right-handed pitcher, has been long awaited by the organization. He has not pitched since June 2019 after undergoing elbow surgery and opted out of the 2020 season for health reasons.
