Reds GM Walt Jocketty said Thursday that Billy Hamilton will open the season at Triple-A Louisville.

"He'll be playing center field and working on his offense and his overall game," Jocketty told reporters. Hamilton batted .311/.410/.420 with a record 155 stolen bases in 132 games last season between High-A Bakersfield and Double-A Pensacola. He should make his way up to Cincinnati at some point during the 2013 campaign.
