Rangers Acquire Josh Hamilton
The Rangers have picked up outfielder Josh Hamilton from the Reds in exchange for pitchers Edinson Volquez and Danny Herrera.
Hamilton enjoyed a successful comeback season, after many years of disappointment brought on my drug and alcohol addictions. He was taken in the Rule V draft prior to the '07 season and finally showed the promise that made him a 1st round pick in 1999. Hamilton hit .292-19-47 in just 90 games.
Volquez was 14-6 with 166 strikeouts at 3 minor league levels. The left-handed throwing Herrera struck out 64 in 52 1/3 innings at Double-A.
