Back In The Game
Is this Josh Hamilton's last chance? Real
Sports' Jon Frankel goes one on one with the former number one
pick to discuss his troubled past and his fight to make it back to the
top. When the Tampa Bay Devil Rays made Josh Hamilton the
number one overall pick in the 1999 MLB Draft ahead of Josh
Beckett, they expected him to become a star. Seeing the future of
their organization in his raw talent, they handed the high school
prospect a $3.96 million dollar signing bonus. Almost seven years
later, he has yet to spend a day in the big leagues. The 25-year-old
outfielder was suspended in February 2004 for violating baseball's
drug policy, and hadn't played since July 2002 because of injuries
and unspecified personal issues. Despite these setbacks, Hamilton
returned to the field in July playing class-A ball in the New York-Penn
League, looking to turn his career around.
