The Giants managed to beat Washington 7-1 Wednesday to avoid being swept by a team that figures to be one of the National League bottom feeders before taking a day off and playing a pair of three-game series in Tampa Bay and Miami that begins Friday afternoon.
When all is said and done, Jordan Hicks, with a 2-0 record and 1.00 ERA in three starts and 18 innings, may wind up having a better year than Snell, the reigning N.L. Cy Young Award winner the Giants signed just before they wrapped up spring training.
Hicks' stuff is dazzling and has caught the attention of Rob Friedman, the Twitter/X Pitching Ninja. He's only walked three batters, and his WHIP is 0.833, showcasing his exceptional pitching skills.
He's also got great perspective about switching from reliever to starter, indicating his adaptability and readiness for the new role within the team.
