David Hamilton On The Bench For Boston Tuesday
5 months agoBoston Red Sox middle infielder David Hamilton will start on the bench on Tuesday versus the hosting Miami Marlins. Ceddanne Rafaela is starting at shortstop and batting ninth, while Enmanuel Valdez is at second base and hitting seventh against Marlins right-hander Valente Bellozo, who will be making just the second start of his major-league career. Rafaela has more fantasy upside, but his DFS ceiling remains on the low end if he continues to hit at the bottom of Boston's batting order. Hamilton has run with his opportunity this year with both Trevor Story and Vaughn Grissom injured, but he has only two hits in his last 18 at-bats to drop his season line to .268/.318/.427 with five home runs and 15 RBI. Still, Hamilton has been a nice waiver-wire addition for fantasy managers seeking speed in 2024, as he's recorded 21 thefts in 164 at-bats.
