Royals designate Billy Hamilton for assignment
The Kansas City Royals have designated outfielder Billy Hamilton for assignment on Friday.
What It Means:
Hamilton will be placed on waivers after producing a poor season with the bat. Brett Phillips should be next in line for playing time in the Royals' outfield going forward.
In 275 at-bats this season, Hamilton produced a .211 average with 12 RBI and 18 stolen bases.
