Angels' Aaron Hicks: Taking seat Thursday
Hicks is out of the lineup for Thursday's game against the Rays, Jeff Fletcher of The Orange County Register reports.
Hicks finds himself on the bench for the third time in four games and may be viewed as a part-time player at this time in the wake of his rough start to the season. Over 48 plate appearances with the Angels, Hicks is slashing .159/.229/.227 with a career-worst 31.2 percent strikeout rate.

Angels' Aaron Hicks: Poaching work from Sano
Hicks will serve as the Angels' designated hitter and No. 5 batter in Sunday's game against the Red Sox, Jeff Fletcher of The Orange County Register reports.
Hicks will draw a third consecutive start, all of which have come against right-handed pitching. Though he owns an underwhelming .528 OPS through 38 plate appearances on the season, Hicks still looks as though he's being prioritized over Miguel Sano, who has seen his strikeouts pile up of late and will remain out of the lineup for a third straight contest.

Angels' Aaron Hicks: Sitting again Sunday
Hicks is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Red Sox.
Hicks is on the bench for the second time in the three-game series, with both of his absences coming against right-handed pitching. With Miguel Sano heating up at the plate to solidify himself as the Angels' top option at designated hitter and with Mickey Moniak gaining traction in right field, Hicks' opportunities could be limited mostly to when the Halos face left-handed pitching.

Angels' Aaron Hicks: Gets breather Friday
Hicks isn't in the Angels' lineup for Friday's game against the Red Sox, Rhett Bollinger of MLB.com reports.
Hicks will take a seat for the Angels' home opener after going 3-for-12 with a homer, three RBI and three runs scored during Los Angeles' previous series versus Miami. Miguel Sano will enter the lineup as the DH and bat sixth.

Angels' Aaron Hicks: Launches first home run
Hicks went 2-for-4 with a solo homer, two RBI and two runs scored in Tuesday's win over the Marlins.
Hicks broke a scoreless tie with a fourth-inning home run off Jesus Luzardo and later added on with an RBI-single in the seventh. Those were his first two hits of the season after opening up the campaign 0-for-11 at the plate. Hicks has slotted in the No. 2 spot in the batting order in three of his four starts so far, giving him some appeal when hitting right in front of Mike Trout.

Angels' Aaron Hicks: Not starting Sunday
Hicks is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Orioles.

Angels' Aaron Hicks: Draws start in right field
Hicks will start in right field and bat second in Thursday's opener against the Orioles.
The expectation was the Hicks would play regularly against left-handers, but it's telling that he's not only in there versus righty Corbin Burnes on Opening Day but also all the way up in the second spot in the batting order. Mickey Moniak will begin this one on the bench.

Angels' Aaron Hicks: Back in lineup Thursday
Hicks (soreness) will start in center field and bat leadoff in Thursday's Cactus League game against the White Sox, Jeff Fletcher of The Orange County Register reports.
Hicks missed a little time with what the Halos described as general body soreness, but he played in an intrasquad game Wednesday and is back in the Cactus League lineup a day later. The veteran is expected to be an active fourth outfielder for the Angels, drawing much of his playing time against lefties.

Angels' Aaron Hicks: Plays in intrasquad game
Hicks (soreness) played in an intrasquad game Wednesday, Jeff Fletcher of The Orange County Register reports.
Hicks was a late scratch from the Angels' Cactus League lineup Monday due to what the club referred to only as general body soreness. Whatever he's dealing with, the fact that he was able to play in a game of any kind two days later is a good sign. A return to Cactus League action appears imminent.

Angels' Aaron Hicks: Scratched from lineup with soreness
Hicks was scratched from the lineup for Monday's Cactus League game against the Rangers due to body soreness, Jeff Fletcher of The Orange County Register reports.
The Halos failed to disclose any more details regarding Hicks' injury, but at this juncture it wouldn't seem overly worrisome. Willie Calhoun will start in right field in Hicks' stead.

Angels' Aaron Hicks: Will play all over outfield
Hicks said Tuesday that he expects to play all three outfield spots while occasionally serving as the Angels' DH, Sam Blum of The Athletic reports.
Hicks has been used primarily as a center fielder throughout his career, but last season saw him play all three outfield positions for the first time since 2017. Hicks added that he is preparing to play every day, although that doesn't necessarily mean he will be a regular part of Los Angeles' lineup. The 34-year-old slashed .349/.446/.524 in 74 plate appearances versus southpaws last season, so he figures to at least crack the starting nine against left-handers.

Angels' Aaron Hicks: Signs MLB deal with Angels
Hicks signed a one-year contract with the Angels on Monday, Jeff Fletcher of The Orange County Register reports.
The Angels will pay Hicks the minimum salary, with the Yankees still on the hook for the rest of the nearly $10 million he's owed in 2024. Hicks rebounded nicely with the Orioles last season after the Yanks cut him loose, putting up an .806 OPS with seven homers and six steals over 65 games with Baltimore. The 34-year-old wouldn't appear to have a clear path to a starting job with the Angels, but the club can't necessarily count on Mike Trout staying healthy or Mickey Moniak repeating his 2023 performance, so Hicks could wind up playing plenty.

Orioles' Aaron Hicks: Takes seat for Game 3
Hicks is not in the lineup Tuesday for Game 3 of the ALDS against the Rangers.
Anthony Santander is starting in right field and Ryan O'Hearn will fill the DH role as the Orioles try to avoid elimination versus the Rangers and right-hander Nathan Eovaldi. Hicks played right field in the first two games of the best-of-five series and recorded five RBI in Game 2, but he slashed just .223/.324/.340 across 238 plate appearances against righties during the regular season.
