Reds' Billy Hamilton: Set to lead off
Hamilton is expected to lead off this season, John Fay of the Cincinnati Enquirer reports.
Analysis:
Hamilton's jaw-dropping speed makes this a logical move, especially after his OBP increased by 47 points to .321 last season. Fantasy players can just about add 50 stolen bases in Sharpie to their final totals when they draft him, though he's unlikely to excel in any other category given the state of the Reds' lineup behind him.
