Defensive replacement ala Jerrod Dyson last year?

Yeah I'd think he'd fill that role of Sept Callup guy that is the late inning replacement for defense and baserunning. 

anyone in the OF who hasn't played in a few days?

Robert was scratched yesterday.  This is a MiLB deal though so i would assume this is strictly depth for the year.

Hopefully not a sign that Robert is more serious.  

What lol

Why?

I wanna go fast.

No, that would have been a Puig signing.

Good depth move.  This is the sort of move you can do as a contender, guys like Billy will want to try and give it one last shot on a winner.

I think Billy Hamilton will show up and play baseball right now for any team willing to give him a salary to do that. He was in Cleveland's camp last week.

What's weird is they released him because he wasn't going to make the team. Unless Robert is hurt, he isn't going to make the White Sox. I wonder why he would sign. 

Honestly, nothing wrong with this.  He is now our 6th OF, and will be in the minors with great D and speed.  We've had FAR worse.

You should give us a little nibble.

There were probably half a dozen or more clubs that wanted to give him a minor league deal.  He chose Chicago.  The money is the same, so I feel pretty confident saying Chicago's chances at a playoff push (where Billy would be  an ideal expanded roster addition) factored into his thinking.

It's a move on the extreme margins but it's one that could pay off.

Until Puig has that alleged sexual assault thing cleared up, no one is going to touch him.

this must've been what @Harold's Leg Lift was leaking..

He's 30 now. Time to start going by Bill instead of Billy.

Don’t get too excited.
