Hard to imagine a worse place for someone like Hamilton than Boston as the resident superstar. That town would chew him up and spit him out. The Angels are a much better choice, since they are the #3 team in town (after the Lakers and the Dodgers) and he will not be the #1 star on the team (or maybe even the #2 star).
I don't agree with this at all. His problem is addiction, not being in the spotlight. It's not like there are no drugs or alcohol in LA. I don't think handling the media or fans is an issue for him. My only concern would be with his ability to stay healthy and on the field.
Didn't see this in the thread: December 6th Twins trade Ben Revere to the Phillies in exchange for Trevor May and Vance Worley.
