Right-hander Jordan Hicks and the San Francisco Giants are in agreement on a four-year, $44 million contract, a source familiar with the deal tells ESPN. Hicks, 27, is expected to work as a starter after spending the majority of his career in the bullpen.
Jordan Hicks is fascinating ... he has thrown five innings just once in the big leagues, but it was against the Giants two years ago and he was sitting at 99 in the fifth inning.

Hicks, a former top prospect for St. Louis, debuted with the Cardinals at 21 years old in 2018 and primarily was used out of the bullpen. He has just eight MLB starts in his career, all in 2018, but per Passan, is expected to pitch in the Giants' starting rotation.
