Aaron Hicks has become Yankees ‘nightmare,’ Mike Francesa says

Mike Francesa has seen enough of Aaron Hicks.

The WFAN legend said the embattled Yankees outfielder “has become a nightmare” for the Bombers. And a good amount of the blame belongs with general manager Brian Cashman.

“He should have been gone long ago,” Francesa said on his latest BetRivers podcast. “That’s a Cashman project, a Cashman fave. They used to play him in center (field), waiting for him to hit the occasional home run, walk and play defense. Bottom line is, now that’s over.”
