Price is finally admitting to having no clue on how to fix the hitting. Cozart, Bruce, now Hamilton. I thought Billy was going to learn how to bunt. He's hitting on the interstate.
Reds test out Billy Hamilton at seventh in batting order Monday
by Brandon Wise | CBSSports.com
Reds center fielder Billy Hamilton typically hits lead off in the batting order during the regular season. However, Monday, manager Bryan Price tried to change things up and moved Hamilton to seventh in the order, reports MLB.com.
"Well, I've moved everyone else this spring. ... I've had guys all over the board," Price said. "Having Billy hit further down in the lineup is just another option for us to see where we're best suited. It's not a shot at Billy. It's a shot at trying to see if we have a way of being more productive offensively."
Hamilton is hitting .179 in 39 spring training plate appearances with four RBI and six stolen bases.
