Detroit Tigers catcher/first baseman John Hicks is on the bench for Saturday's game versus the Houston Astros.
Hicks went 1-for-4 with a pair of strikeouts in last night's start. However, he will allow Jim Adduci to get the start at first base today for Detroit.
Batting .278, Hicks is projected for 6 home runs and a .263 average the rest of the season.
