Fake Teams Says:
if Hamilton could stay healthy, he would probably be ranked higher, but he has been injury prone for the last few years. He hit .359-.411-.633 with 32 HRs, 100 RBIs, 95 runs scored and 8 SBs in 2010. His BABIP of .390 was 70 points higher than his 2009 BABIP, so his BA and OBP should regress some in 2011. He did lower his K rate from 24% to 18% and his BB rate from 6.6.% to 7.5%. Bill James projects him to go 26-91-80-7-.324-.386-.561, but I see him performing better. I see him going 30+ HRs and 100+ RBIs with a BA slightly above .300.

Fantasy Baseball Hot Stove Says:
Josh Hamilton was first in MLB in batting average, OPS, and slugging percentage last season. Those numbers related to his rates, but Hamilton would have could have competed with Carlos Gonzalez as the top overall player in fantasy baseball if he had played in more games to bring up his cumulative (RBI, runs, HR) numbers. He missed 24 games in September thanks to bruised ribs. Despite missing all of that action, Hamilton was still in the top ten in extra base hits, hits, home runs, and total bases.
Skeptics Say: In case you have been out of the loop in fantasy baseball for the past three seasons, Hamilton has issues staying on the field. He's missed an average of 36 games the past three seasons. That is the equivalent of more than 22% of his team's games and seven weeks of action. Considering that the 36 games per season does not include games in which he enters as a pinch hitter, and this guy is practically not with you for two months of the season. It will be interesting to see how a short off season impacts his durability this year.
Also of concern with Hamilton is his .390 BABIP. While it's again feasible that he'll have a BABIP in the .350 area, last year he was extremely lucky when it came to bloopers or seeing-eye hits. His strikeout and fly ball rates came down, but his line drive rate was virtually unchanged. He won't hit .359 again.
Projection: Hamilton will drop off a touch from who he was last season.
91 R 27 HR 97 RBI 6 SB .327 AVG .955 OPS
