11:46 AM ET 12.16 | According to beat writer Mike DiGiovanna of the Los Angeles Times via Twitter, the Angels have hired Hamilton's accountability partner, Shayne Kelley, away from the Rangers. He will technically serve as a major league staff assistant for the Halos, but Kelley's primary objective will be to ensure that Hamilton makes good decisions at home and on the road. That presumably involves regular check-ins and drug tests. Hamilton had two known relapses during his time with Texas ??? most recently in February 2012.

If this guy was his "accountability partner" with the Rangers, and he had two relapses during that period....who is holding the accountability partner accountable?

This - hiring this guy, and the need to hire this guy - is the very reason teams were scared by Josh Hamilton.

We will miss Josh's play on the field, but not the circus off of it. As a fellow Christian, I do pray he keeps his life straight. Baseball is just a small part of it. Look at the five people in the picture that he has to be accountable to and for......
