Rest-of-Season Projections
2023 Fantasy Outlook
If you're playing in a very deep league where you're desperate for steals and Hamilton has just earned a call-up, he's not a bad option for a temporary boost. For anyone else, it's likely not worth your time even reading to the end of this paragraph. When he plays, he's going to run, as seen from the fact that he stole 10 bases while coming to the plate just 23 times last season. But there's no reason to draft a player for whom 23 plate appearances is a reasonable projection, and there's no reason to alter that projection by much. Across the last four seasons, Hamilton has hit just .206/.263/.289 with three homers. He struck out 12 times last season while grabbing just one hit at the big-league level, and he hit a miserable .188/.264/.229 across 25 Triple-A contests. He's a true specialist in the Terrance Gore mold at this point in his career and, like Gore, may not even crack a big-league roster until rosters expand in September. Read Past Outlooks

Latches on with Rays
Hamilton signed a minor-league contract with the Rays on Wednesday, Marc Topkin of the Tampa Bay Times reports.
ANALYSIS
Hamilton was cut loose by the White Sox a week ago, but a right shoulder injury has kept him out of action in Triple-A since July 7. When healthy, the 32-year-old outfielder hasn't been very impressive with a .147/.261/.253 slash line across 89 plate appearances. Hamilton will be an option to fill a pinch-running role down the stretch.

Stat Review
How does Billy Hamilton compare to other hitters?
This section compares his stats with all batting seasons from the previous three seasons (minimum 400 plate appearances)*. The bar represents the player's percentile rank. For example, if the bar is halfway across, then the player falls into the 50th percentile for that stat and it would be considered average.
* Exit Velocity and Barrels/PA % are benchmarked against 2019 data (min 400 PA) and Hard Hit Rate is benchmarked against last season's data (min 400 PA). See here for more exit velocity/barrels stats plus an explanation of current limitations with that data set.

Billy Hamilton. His name in Billy Hamilton. And there is a million things he hasn't done, but just you wait, just you wait. Actually, don't wait because the most important thing he hasn't done is hit. Hamilton's offensive game has been in decline for some time, but 2020 was the bottom of the barrel as he posted a 3 wRC+ with a .125/.171/.219 slash line. His entire season was essentially the final game of the season when he walked, stole two bases and hit a home run, winning someone some DFS cash that day. Otherwise, he is the emptiest of steals who will hang around as a defensive replacement and pinch-running specialist. He's closer to Terrance Gore than Jarrod Dyson or Rajai Davis, and is only rosterable in the deepest of single-league formats which utilize a bench. You must have the surplus on your roster to carry this anemic bat.
