Despite his longevity, he hasn't got the entire support of the Yankees faithful, who still doubt his place in the batting lineup. There have been repeated calls for him to be traded away or dropped, but that hasn't materialized.Talkin' Yanks@TalkinYanksAaron Hicks is gonna be rocking some Mandalorian cleats(via @LuciaFootwearCo)143158Aaron Hicks is gonna be rocking some Mandalorian cleats(via @LuciaFootwearCo) https://t.co/XghHnmJLZNFans were quick to share their thoughts on social media:Yankee Fan (Sorry)@LogicalYankee@TalkinYanks @LuciaFootwearCo He should rock stormtrooper cleats.
