Hamilton got Help which led him back to Baseball
In this video Josh talks about he tried to beat these demons on his own and failed. Even today, he does not trust himself with his per diem meal money that he receives as a Major League player. The reason Josh is back to where he is today is a credit to all the people that have taken Josh under their wing and helped this young man out.
Even today, there are people in his new found baseball career that have been invaluable to Josh. Take Ryan Freel, all joking aside, I bet he has made a huge difference in helping Josh harness his talent.
It seems there is now a pattern to the way Narron is using Hamilton. After a night where he cools down with his bat, the manager gives him the day off from the starting lineup. After a night or two used off the bench, he gives him a shot in the starting lineup again. Lets hope this cycle continues as it has worked wonders so far. As he is on pace for 42 Hr and close to 100 runs if he keeps it up.
