2024 Fantasy Outlook
Hamilton graduated to Triple-A Worcester to start 2023 then got his first taste of MLB, as the Red Sox dealt with injuries and poor production from their middle infield. The speedy Hamilton, who swiped 57 bases for the WooSox in 2023, had two steals and batted .121 in 15 games for Boston. The Red Sox entered the offseason with a glaring need at second base, which put Hamilton's name in the mix, but the acquisition of Vaughn Grissom from Atlanta in the Chris Sale trade should put an end to the notion of Hamilton breaking camp with a full-time gig. Someone with Hamilton's profile - his plus-plus speed is his best asset - needs to get on base with regularity. He draws walks at a decent clip but there's a lot of swing-and-miss, too. All signs point to Hamilton opening the year at Triple-A and on the Mass Pike shuttle between Worcester and Boston. Read Past Outlooks

Limited to bench role
Hamilton is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Guardians, Mac Cerullo of the Boston Herald reports.
ANALYSIS
Hamilton will take a seat for the fifth straight contest and looks as though he won't be in store for a regular role at shortstop in the wake of Trevor Story's season-ending shoulder injury. Instead, the Red Sox have moved Ceddanne Rafaela from the outfield to shortstop, opening up a regular spot in the corner outfield for Wilyer Abreu.

2023 Fantasy Outlook
Hamilton was acquired by the Red Sox in December 2021 in the trade that sent Hunter Renfroe to the Brewers, and the young shortstop had a .253/.341/.405 slash line with 12 home runs and 71 steals for Double-A Portland during his first year with the organization. Now 25 years old, Boston will likely want to see Hamilton at the Triple-A level in 2023, and he was added to the 40-man roster in November to protect him from the Rule 5 draft. Hamilton's work on the basepaths is clearly his best asset, and he should be in the mix to make his big-league debut if he has a solid spring training and start to the season at Triple-A.
