Hamilton is not in Sunday's lineup against the Rangers, Eric Kay of the Angels reports. Hamilton's rib inflammation remains problematic and painful, forcing him to receive seven pain-killing injections in his back and chest. Hamilton could return later in the week, but his pain could further hurt his play and the Angels are comfortably in the lead for home-field advantage. For now, priming Hamilton for the postseason will be goal number one for the team.
