Hicks (knee) remains without an exact diagnosis but has been ruled out for the rest of the postseason, Brendan Kuty of The Newark Star-Ledger reports.
EDGE Analysis
Hicks collided with Oswaldo Cabrera in left field while trying to catch a flyball in Game 5 of the ALDS. He underwent a CT scan and MRI, though the exact diagnosis has yet to be disclosed. Hicks told reporters he'd need a six-week timeline to recover, so he should be back in plenty of time for spring training.

Hicks will undergo an MRI on his left knee Tuesday.
EDGE Analysis
Initially speculated to be a foot/ankle injury, it is now confirmed that Hicks' left knee is what is bothering him after his collision with Oswaldo Cabrera on Tuesday. The MRI will reveal any damage done to his knee and help determine if he will have to miss any time during the ALCS, should the Yankees advance.

Hicks (foot) was removed from Game 5 of the ALDS against Cleveland after colliding with Oswaldo Cabrera in the third inning, Lindsey Adler of The Athletic reports.
EDGE Analysis
It looks like most of the damage was done to Hicks' ankle/foot, but the specifics and severity of the injury remain unknown. The Yankees will take a closer look and likely provide an update soon. In the meantime, Marwin Gonzalez will enter the game and take Hicks' spot in left field.

Hicks went 3-for-3 with a walk and a run scored in Wednesday's win over Toronto.
EDGE Analysis
For just the second time this season, Hicks was perfect at the plate, reaching base in all four of his plate appearances. The multi-hit effort was his fourth in his last eight games, a period in which he has improved his season-long slash line from .209/.324/.293 to .224/.334/.324. Despite the hot streak, Hicks should be considered a fringe outfield option in most fantasy leagues to close the season.

Hicks went 2-for-3 with a home run, two total runs and two total RBI in Friday's 5-4 win over the Red Sox.
EDGE Analysis
Hicks had been dealing with an illness that cost him a few games heading into the contest, but he returned to action Friday as New York's starting left fielder and slotted into the No. 9 slot in the order. He put the Yankees on the board in the third inning with a solo homer and then gave the team its first lead with a run-scoring single in the fifth. Though Hicks has had a tough season overall and has heard boos from Yankees fans of late, he may be starting to put things together at the plate. Over his past four games, the veteran has gone 7-for-15 with two homers, three RBI, five runs and a stolen base.

Hicks (illness) is starting in left field and batting ninth Friday against the Red Sox.
EDGE Analysis
Hicks has been feeling under the weather and hasn't seen the field since Sept. 18, but he's back in the lineup for Friday's contest. The veteran outfielder has a .588 OPS in September, though he's gone 5-for-12 with a home run, a double and three runs in his last three games.

Manager Aaron Boone said Wednesday that Hicks is feeling under the weather, Marly Rivera of ESPN.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Hicks is on the bench for the sixth time in the last nine games Wednesday, and it's possible that the team avoids using him off the bench for the series finale against the Pirates due to his illness. Oswaldo Cabrera has served as the Yankees' primary left fielder recently.

Hicks is not in the lineup for Tuesday's game in Boston, Pete Caldera of The Bergen Record reports.
EDGE Analysis
Hicks has not seen the field since Friday when he left the game early due to a poor defensive performance. In Hicks' absence, Miguel Andujar will make his thrid straight start in left field.

Hicks is not in the lineup for Sunday's game against the Rays.
EDGE Analysis
Sunday's game will be the second the Yankees have played since Hicks was pulled from Friday's contest following a pair of mishaps in the field, and it will also be the second Hicks has opened on the bench. As was the case Saturday, Miguel Andujar will get the nod in left field.

Hicks isn't starting Saturday against the Rays, Marly Rivera of ESPN.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Hicks has hit just .125 with two doubles, three RBI, a walk and eight strikeouts over eight games since the start of September. He went 0-for-2 with two strikeouts and made two defensive miscues before he was pulled early in Friday's 4-2 loss, so it doesn't come as a major surprise that he'll hit the bench after three straight starts. Miguel Andujar is starting in left field and batting sixth.
