Hamilton was reassigned to minor-league camp by the White Sox on Monday, LaMond Pope of the Chicago Tribune reports.

EDGE Analysis

Hamilton was trying to win a reserve spot on the Chicago bench after signing as a non-roster invite, but the outfielder will not be a part of the Opening Day roster for the White Sox. The speedy 32-year-old will likely be an outfielder for Triple-A Charlotte if he stays with the organization.

Hamilton signed with the White Sox as a non-roster invitee Saturday, Scott Merkin of MLB.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Hamilton spent time with the White Sox in 2021, slashing .220/.242/.378 across 135 plate appearances. He appeared in big-league games for the Marlins and Twins last season but only came to the plate 23 times. At this point his in career, the 32-year-old's bat isn't good enough for his speed and defense to earn him regular playing time, but it's possible he earns a bench spot.

Hamilton isn't starting Saturday against the White Sox.

EDGE Analysis

Hamilton's contract was selected by the Twins on Thursday, but he hasn't yet started a game for Minnesota. Gilberto Celestino is starting in center field and batting ninth Saturday.

Hamilton had his contract selected by the Twins on Thursday.

EDGE Analysis

The 31-year-old inked a minor-league deal with the Twins last week, and he'll join the big club Thursday with rosters expanding to 28 players. Hamilton appeared in 20 games for Miami before being let go in mid-August and had a .220 OPS in 15 plate appearances. He'll provide another option in center field with Byron Buxton (hip) on the injured list.

Hamilton and the Twins agreed Thursday on a minor-league contract, Do-Hyoung Park of MLB.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Hamilton will first join the Twins' rookie-level Florida Complex League affiliate while he settles in with his new organization, but a promotion to Triple-A St. Paul should come before long. The Twins will likely spend the next few weeks evaluating Hamilton in the minors before potentially summoning him to the big leagues when the roster expands to 28 men in September. At this stage of his career, the ship has sailed on Hamilton hitting well enough to be an everyday player, but his premium speed and excellent defense in center field make him an ideal bench piece.

Hamilton elected free agency Saturday.

EDGE Analysis

Hamilton will opt to explore his options outside the Marlins organization after he was designated for assignment and outrighted to Triple-A Jacksonville last week. The 31-year-old could have some appeal to a playoff-contending team down the stretch as a speed-and-defense-oriented reserve outfielder.

Hamilton was outrighted to Triple-A Jacksonville on Friday, Christina De Nicola of MLB.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Hamilton's contract was selected by the Marlins at the beginning of July, and he hit .077 with nine runs and seven stolen bases over 20 games with the major-league club. However, he'll lose his spot on the 40-man roster as part of a move after Jon Berti and Brian Anderson were reinstated from the injured list Friday.

Hamilton went 0-for-2 with a walk, a run scored and a stolen base in Wednesday's win over the Reds.

EDGE Analysis

Getting a rare start in center field and batting ninth, Hamilton did what he does best the one time he was able to get on base. The veteran outfielder has seen only 11 plate appearances since joining the Marlins in early July, going 1-for-9 with four strikeouts, but he's managed to do some damage as a pinch runner by stealing seven bases and scoring eight runs -- enough production to give him some appeal as a bargain DFS option the next time manager Don Mattingly writes his name into the starting lineup.

Hamilton was added to the lineup for Thursday's game against the Pirates, Christina De Nicola of MLB.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Hamilton was slated to sit once again Thursday, but he'll start in center field and bat ninth after Jesus Sanchez (personal) was a late scratch. Hamilton has gone 0-for-5 with six runs, three stolen bases and two strikeouts over his last nine games.

Hamilton stole a base and scored a run as a pinch runner in Sunday's extra-inning win over the Mets.

EDGE Analysis

Garrett Cooper was set to begin the 10th inning as the phantom runner in a scoreless tie, but Hamilton replaced him and made an immediate impact with his speed, stealing third base and then coming home with the winning run on a throwing error by Tomas Nido. Hamilton has gotten only one start in seven games since joining the Marlins and has gone just 0-for-4 at the plate, but he's stolen three bases and scored four runs.
