The way Josh Hamilton is playing, I REALLY doubt it.

For what it's worth, currently, he's third in the AL in VORP with 48.7, behind Ian Kinsler (51.3) and teammate Grady Sizemore (48.8). Alex Rodriguez is next at 45.8.
Which, considering those players' defensive contributions, makes Lee vastly less valuable than each of the other three.

Kinsler's been pretty poor defensively. Sizemore's been good. Taking defense into account, I'd rank them Sizemore-Lee-Kinsler, but I wouldn't give Sizemore a VAST lead.
