Blue Jays bolster bullpen by acquiring RHP Jordan Hicks from St. Louis

Associated Press  

TORONTO — The Toronto Blue Jays strengthened their depleted bullpen Sunday by acquiring right-hander Jordan Hicks in a trade with the St. Louis Cardinals. Toronto sent minor league right-handers Adam Kloffenstein and Sem Robberse to St. Louis for the 26-year-old Hicks. Toronto lost Sunday’s series finale when García, who was pitching for the third straight day, gave up Hunter Renfroe’s two-run homer in the 10th. The Blue Jays could get more relief help when right-hander Chad Green returns from Tommy John surgery.
