Hamilton (hamstring) will return to left field Wednesday against the Marlins.
Limited to DH duty the past two games, Hamilton will be able to return to the outfield Wednesday despite some lingering hamstring tightness. Hamilton said Tuesday that the ailment has restricted him to running "at about 85 percent," and while it looks like he'll be fine to continue playing through it, the team could opt to give him a day off this weekend with a pair of lefties (Jon Lester and Scott Kazmir) lined up to start for Oakland. Hamilton has started to come around a bit at the plate in recent days, with two doubles and two homers over the past week.
