Billy Hamilton on Royals' bench in St. Louis
Kansas City Royals center fielder Billy Hamilton is not starting on Wednesday afternoon versus right-hander Michael Wacha and the St. Louis Cardinals.
What It Means:
The game is being played under National League rules at Busch Stadium in St. Louis, so the Royals are working without a designated hitter. Whit Merrifield is moving to center field in place of Hamilton while Jorge Soler shifts to right from the DH spot.
numberFire's models expect Hamilton to record 4 homers, 25 RBI, 48 runs scored, and 24 steals over the rest of the season.
