One step closer.
The Reds gave him a bundle when he entered MLB and he blew it on drugs. They gave him to Texas, where he rehabbed himself into the potential that the Reds saw in him and made bigger bucks by selling himself to the highest bidder. Once he got that big payday, his life went down the toilet and he went back to the drugs. Maybe money doesn't buy happiness? Maybe he needs to get his head back together and realize that the drugs aren't helping him? In fact, they are standing between him and the job that he supposedly loves and is lucky to have. Wouldn't be surprised if the money and/or drugs is a cause for the marital problems too. Money can do strange things to people. Josh, this is your second strike and you're LUCKY to be getting it. Simply put, either get it together or find a new line of work- one that doesn't care if you are doing drugs.
3 strikes and he'll be out, maybe for good.
I see where Josh is still using God like some Hollywood prop. He's down at AA rehabbing and telling everyone about the Lord.
Get ready lynch mob, Josh is playing against Cleveland tomorrow.
Hamilton is the best pure talent you'll ever see. Yes, he's been a dumbass and ruined what could have been. I still root for the guy, though.
They used the call him "The Natural". Too bad he's as dumb as a bag of hammers.
I hope he tanks. To hell with this guy.
But if you get hit by a bag of hammers, it really smarts!
...it's ok, I'll show myself the door.
You hope he doesn't open a can of whoop ass on your Indians right about now.
