Hamilton Home Runs Watch

[Adam]

He sucks

[Vegas Halo Fan]

looks like a MUCH different hitter than pre-thumb injury, gotta believe its a factor

 

I've been thinking the same thing. I wonder if he tried to return before it was totally healed, or maybe he reinjured it shortly after coming back. Now he looks like the Hamilton of last season, weakly waving at pitches well out of the strike zone. He appears distracted, which pain would do. When the season started he appeared locked in and he wasn't swinging at junk.

I just wish he'd take a pitch or two.

 

Every 1-0 count they throw him offspeed and he whiffs, so what's the point?

I think it's funny that the thread title is written in question form? The statement "Hamilton doesn't hit HRs anymore" would have been accurate.

Who was the analyst who wanted Hamilton to bat 3rd behind Trout earlier this year?

[Guest]

I nearly threw up at the thought of that. But I suppose it would give Trout the chance to steal, while Hamilton goes down on three swinging stikes.

Trout walks. Trout steals second as Hamilton strikes out. Albert Pujols walks. Howie Kendrick grounds into an inning-ending double play.

Billy Hamilton hits home runs.

HamilWhiffATon and his awesome TWO HRs since early June

You sure can pick them Dipoto, why don't you stick to running a farm system and let a REAL GM take over?

@Alden_Gonzalez: Hamilton, on the trademark power he's hardly displayed this year: "It's still there. ... It hasn't gone anywhere." http://t.co/WcCZxyrLFh

"It's still there," Hamilton said of the prodigious power that once made him one of the game's most feared hitters. "In batting practice, early BP, it's there. It hasn't gone anywhere. I'm just trying to get it to translate to the game. But the worst thing you can do is try to do it in the game, try to create it."

Batting practice power?? Lol

Keep on making excuses HamilWhiffATon, I predict you don't even reach 12 HRs.

He's on pace for 9. For comparison Torii Hunter is on pace for 24

Who is the REAL GM that you believe is waiting in the wings to take over?
