Eligibility
New York Yankees outfielder Aaron Hicks is completely recovered from a knee injury suffered in the playoffs.
Fantasy Impact
Hicks hurt his left knee in a collision with shortstop Oswaldo Cabrera in Game 5 of the ALDS against the Cleveland Guardians. and missed the entire ALCS against the Houston Astros as a result. He scuffled to a .216 average with eight homers and 10 steals in 130 games last season and will be challenged for playing time by the 23-year-old Cabrera in left field in 2023.
Aaron Hicks went 3-for-3 with a walk and a run scored in New York’s 8-3 win in Toronto on Wednesday.

That eight-game stretch also included four multi-hit performances and raised his average from .209 to .224 even at this late stage of the season. Hicks is slashing .224/.334/.324 with eight home runs, 40 RBI, 52 runs scored, and 10 stolen bases in 370 at-bats this season.

Fantasy Impact
Hicks homered for the first time since July 9 to tie the game 1-1 in the 3rd inning. Hicks has now hit safely in four straight games with three multi-hit performances in that span. Hicks slumped so bad in August that he has as many hits (7) in his last four games as he did all of August.

Aaron Hicks is feeling better after taking a foul ball to his shin during New York's game against Boston on Tuesday.
Fantasy Impact
Hicks went down hard and had to be helped off of the field after taking the foul ball to the shin. He initially feared that it might be broken or fractured but is apparently feeling better. Barring any setbacks, he should be back this weekend in another matchup against the Red Sox.
Aaron Hicks went 1-for-3 with a solo home run and a walk in New York’s 6-5 extra inning loss in Boston on Saturday.
Fantasy Impact
Hicks’ solo shot off Kutter Crawford tied the game 1-1 in the 5th before New York ultimately lost in 10 innings. The home run was Hicks’ third in his last four games and he has been on an absolute tear to start July. He has hit safely in six of seven games this month and is 10-for-23 (.435) with seven of his ten hits going for extra bases, including three long balls, since the calendar flipped from June. As a result, Hicks’ average has risen to .241, his highest mark since May 10. Fantasy managers should be riding this streak and running him out there as an everyday starter, at least until he cools off.
