Pretty sure he was joking, lol.

But I'm with you 100% on the perception of PEDs.

My goodness Josh Hamilton has got to be frustrating to have on your team, fantasy and real.
April and May playing like the best hitter in baseball, June and July playing like a freakin scrub, worse than that actually.
It just amazes me the turnaround he has had on his season.

Do people think he will still get a lofty contract, or will teams be hesitant?

He'll get the contract. I just hope the Rangers aren't the team to give it to him.

I was hoping that Choo or Upton could be dealt to the team so that Hamilton's departure would be less severe. There are some people who are going to cheer the man no matter what, but I see such a disconnect between Hamilton and upper-management that I doubt anything will keep him here. Heck, Washington has pulled him around the lineup; something that is rarely done to veterans of the team.
