Brewers Acquire Infielder David Hamilton From Boston
The Milwaukee Brewers acquired infielder David Hamilton from the Boston Red Sox on Monday, sources told ESPN's Jeff Passan. Hamilton will return to the Brewers' organization after they originally drafted him in the eighth round in 2019 out of the University of Texas. The 28-year-old mostly played second base and shortstop in Beantown, but he'll be given a chance to compete at third base in spring training this year after Caleb Durbin was sent from Milwaukee to Boston in the same trade. Hamilton hit just .198/.257/.333 with six home runs, 19 RBI, 27 runs scored, and 22 stolen bases in 91 regular-season games for Boston last year, and he holds a .222/.283/.359 slash line with a .642 OPS, 14 home runs, 47 RBI, 76 runs, and 57 steals in 204 games over his three MLB seasons. He is mostly useful for his glove on defense and his speed on the base paths, but he won't be a lock for a regular role with his new team in 2026.
