Hamilton (shoulder) is back in the lineup Tuesday against the Mariners.
Manager Mike Scioscia had previously indicated that Wednesday was the earliest possible for Hamilton's return, but the 33-year-old will step back in at DH Tuesday to face Mariners lefty Roenis Elias after being treated with a pair of cortisone shots last week. Hamilton will return to the No. 6 spot in the order, with Scioscia likely to continue riding with Howie Kendrick in the cleanup spot for the foreseeable future.
