Reds' Billy Hamilton: Swipes another bag Sunday
Hamilton went 2-for-5 with his 32nd stolen base of the season and a run in Sunday's loss to the Diamondbacks.
Analysis:
He's now got five steals in the last three games and 10 in his last nine games, finally beginning to provide some premium value in the category he was drafted for. Not coincidentally, Hamilton's also reached base at least once in 10 straight games, hitting .349 (15-for-43) with three walks over that stretch. As long as Hamilton can keep finding his way to first base, he should continue swiping bags on a regular basis.
