Davey Martinez endorsed the job Jim Hickey did in his fist year as the Washington Nationals’ pitching coach at the end of the 2021 campaign, a disappointing season for the club which finished in fifth place in the NL East. Hickey, Martinez said, “... has been great. Hickey’s voice has been heard. He does a great job of communicating with pitchers day in and day out.”
“I can’t wait for him to get these guys with him for another year and continue to work with them,” he added.
So that sounded like an announcement that Hickey would be back?
