Cleveland Indians should have kept Billy Hamilton after Spring Training
Back on February 15 the Cleveland Indians inked a deal with veteran outfielder and free agent Billy Hamilton. The 30-year old speedster had made a career on stolen bases and strong fielding, but his bat was always lackluster. For a team like the Tribe, he seemed like the prototypical late addition along with Harold Ramirez and Ben Gamel.
However unlike Ramirez and Gamel, Hamilton didn’t make it out of Spring Training.
