15,825 very cold fans!
You think Hamilton might get a start tomorrow afternoon? I know he's been under the weather for a couple of days but if he's ready to go I'd think it's time for him to start. He was going to get a start a day or two ago anyway but he had to rid himself of the "flu bug"....
Could someone clarify what is going on with Hamilton? Flu?
