Aaron Hicks is on his way to becoming one of the only players in MLB history to undergo Tommy John surgery and not miss a single game (former Yankee legend Tony Womack also accomplished that feat), and that’s big news for the Yankees.
Sure, Hicks’ ability to not miss a single game despite major surgery is due to the massive delay to the 2020 season that is currently scheduled to end on July 23, Regardless, given the Yankees’ current roster and what Hicks has been able to do when healthy, he will be one of the most important pieces to the Bombers’ success over this 60-game season.
