Not much here that inspires news, but it's hot stove stuff. Referring to Hamilton as "speedy" is sort of like saying 7-foot guys are tall. But never let an adjective go to waste.
Bryan Price says Billy Hamilton will have to prove himself in Spring Training
by Nando Di Fino | Senior Fantasy Writer
Doing a social media Q & A with Reds fans, new coach Bryan Price said that speedy outfielder Billy Hamilton isn't guaranteed a job in 2014.
"I think Billy's got to come and have a good Spring Training," Price said in response to a question asking if Hamilton is ready to start next season. "We're very optimistic this kid's going to be a great player. We also have to put him in the best position to succeed -- we want him here when he's ready and we'll help define that over the course of Spring Training."
Hamilton hit .368 and stole 13 bases over 13 games with the Reds in September. He stole 155 bases over two levels of the minors in 2012.
