San Francisco Giants starting pitcher Jordan Hicks did not have the best of days when he faced the Philadelphia Phillies on Thursday. The Giants lost the game, 6-4. Hicks managed to work through seven innings and only gave up six hits. But he allowed five earned runs and four walks. He also struck out five. When he left the game after the bottom of the seventh, his day was over and he was on the hook for the loss, as he dropped to 1-2. But that wasn’t all.

He said that the delay is due to his “level of healing.”The good news on Wednesday was about Clarke Schmidt.

The Big 12 Conference will have at least two players selected in the first round of the 2025 NFL Draft next week, both from Colorado. Yes, Travis Hunter and Shedeur Sanders will come off the board on the first night. But so many other Big 12 players will have to wait their turn on the second and third days. That doesn’t mean they’re not talented. In fact, some of them are, in my opinion, underrated.

The Texas Rangers had few holdovers from last year’s bullpen, and one of them is now heading back to Triple-A — for now. The Rangers made a move before Wednesday’s game to bolster their bullpen, as they called up Jacob Latz from Round Rock. To make room, Texas sent rookie Marc Church back to the minor leagues. The move is a bit curious, as Church’s raw numbers are solid. He has a 3.86 ERA in five appearances and only allowed two earned runs in 4.2 innings.
