7 years agoCincinnati Reds outfielder Billy Hamilton returned to the leadoff spot on Sunday against the Washington Nationals. He went 1-for-5 with a double, a run, and an RBI. The speedy outfielder had hit ninth in the season opener and did not play in the second game on Saturday. The Reds faced southpaw Gio Gonzalez on Sunday, which may have had some influence on the lineup as lefty-hitting outfielder Jesse Winker had led off in the previous two games. Hamilton's fantasy value will take a sizeable hit if he continues to bat ninth against right-handed pitching, although he will still be a fine source for stolen bases this year.--Matt T - RotoBaller
