Ep. 19: The Forgotten Series - Josh Hamilton

In their second episode of this summer's Forgotten series, Michael and Steve discuss former star Josh Hamilton. From his addiction problems, to stardom atop the baseball world, and lastly his mighty fall from grace again, Hamilton had franchise player written all over him before the former #1 pick in the 1999 draft seemed to be out of the league for good in 2003. It took 4 years, but he fought back and had one of the greatest personal comeback stories in sports history. What seemed like a movie in the making, Hamilton's demons would later resurface, unfortunately. Now that he's been out of the sport for nearly five years we wonder, what the hell happened to Josh Hamilton?
Afterwards, the boys discuss the stress and pressure that players like Hamilton went through and how important it is to have a good support base from family and friends in one’s life. They round out the show with Fantasy Factor and Collection Corner and pay tribute to Tiger great Mickey Stanley!
