Blake Hickman, a graduate of the White Sox Amateur City Elite (ACE) program and Simeon, will make his professional coaching debut as the Kannapolis pitching coach. He pitched in 50 minor-league games with the Sox from 2017-18 and is the first ACE player to coach for the organization.
“The group we have assembled to help lead and develop our minor league players, from coordinators to managers and coaches, is as strong of a group as we have had here with diverse backgrounds and high level experience,” assistant general manager/player development Chris Getz said in a statement.
“We have had a productive offseason with multiple in-person camps and a successful rollout and execution of our new strength and conditioning program. We are well positioned to hit the ground running next month and will continue our goal of getting the most out of our players in preparation for playing in Chicago.”
