He was always vying with Chris Davis for the worst hitter in baseball. Of course he does have value for a post-season team as a pinch runner and defensive replacement. Apparently his sprint speed is a little down and so are his defensive metrics. So his only two tools which are elite aren't as elite anymore. The Yankees have Terrance Gore which makes Hamilton redundant. And Wade who is more valuable.
The only thing is the uncertainty with Hicks and Hamilton is a pure CFer. Could Billy Hamilton make a game saving catch in the 9th inning to win a playoff game that Terrance Gore couldn't? Sure but the Yankees are planning on Hicks being healthy and he would be out there anyway.
Mariano got the chance to see the new "Welcome to Cooperstown" exhibit at the Yankees Museum this morning. Check it out if you're heading to Yankee Stadium any time soon.

It seemed to me that he just overslid the base. And that Tauchman had and made no complaint about being called out under the circumstances.

I just don't like players being called out where the sweeping tag helps them off the bag.

Fair enough.
And he is smart enough to close the deal on the more important parts of his life even where he has to slog through the ocre mud to get there.
Didi big fly and the lead!

Yea, thats the only issue here.
Sarcasm doesn't hide the fact that our pitching is suspect.
