Josh Hamilton’s agent is doing him no favors

Josh Hamilton’s story has been one of the most fascinating and amusing of the postseason.

To localize it for a moment, if the Red Sox’ signing of Shane Victorino means they are no longer interested in Hamilton, that’s probably not a good baseball decision.

Comments

Hamilton with all his baggage is a very poor fit for any tough press town like Boston, Philly or NYC.

John Lackey primarily had two catchers: Jeff Mathis for 17 games (batters hit .237) and Mike Napoli for 10 games (batters hit .309.” - Well Nick, I guess it's good the Napoli is playing 1B for the Sox! Typical Cafardo...something out of nothing...
