[QUOTE="pruman91, post: 1769890, member: 3916"] [URL unfurl="true"]https://www.stltoday.com/sports/baseball/professional/cardinals-hicks-goes-on-il-then-probably-to-minors/article_425dea15-943a-5e70-aede-149b3fbbd25d.html[/URL] [URL='https://www.stltoday.com/users/profile/rhummel']Rick Hummel[/URL] The question of what to do with Jordan Hicks was answered in two-fold fashion Thursday. After the Cardinals right-hander had undergone an ultrasound exam and after Hicks had emerged from a meeting involving president of baseball operations John Mozeliak and manager Oliver Marmol, Hicks announced — and the club soon confirmed — that he has a right forearm flexor strain. “A little forearm tightness,” said Hicks. That injury placed him on the 15-day injury list and, whenever Hicks comes off that list — which could be longer than 15 days — he is likely to be sent out on a minor league rehabilitation outing to try to work out his command and pace issues that have led to his 1-4 record. “We’re not ultra concerned,” said Marmol, “but with his (injury) history, there’s no reason to push through it.” And Hicks also said he deemed the ailment a “minor thing.” Marmol made it clear, though, that Hicks, once the forearm issue was determined, wouldn’t have made his next scheduled start here next Monday even if he had been “dealing” on Tuesday when he lost to Toronto 8-1. Hicks said he had felt some soreness after his starts but that it had been reduced the closer he got to making his next one. “That’s why there hasn’t been really too much concern for me,” he said.
