First month stats: .330, 6 home runs, 32 RBI, 16 runs, .379 OBP, .561 SLG. His 32 RBI led the majors for April.
Has there been a trade in recent memory that looks like it will work out as well as Hamilton for Edinson Volquez? Granted, we're just a month in, but both guys are playing extremely well. There's no doubt that Hamilton has the tools necessary to be a franchise player, it's just a matter of if he can stay healthy at this point. You could criticize the Rangers for dealing away young pitchers but not for this guy they got in return.
