He’s making $5 mil. this year, which is cheap by MLB standards, with a mutual option for next year. If they can trade him for something at the deadline, they probably will. If not, they’ll probably just decline his option after the season. Especially considering we may see Bubba later this year in the OF, Whit may be in RF much more regularly once Lopez comes up and Lee could arrive sometime next year. That doesn’t really leave any room for Hamilton next year.
