The Major League Baseball Players Association is furious about information leaks surrounding Los Angeles Angels outfielder Josh Hamilton. In a statement Thursday, the union said the anonymous leaks about Hamilton's situation ''are cowardly, undermine the integrity of our collectively bargained agreements and in some instances have been wholly inaccurate.'' The union also spoke out in Hamilton's defense, saying it will ''use every right we have under the collective bargaining agreement to make sure Josh gets the help he needs, and the fair and confidential process to which he is entitled.'' Many media outlets have reported that Hamilton, whose substance abuse problems have been well-documented for years, had a recent relapse involving cocaine and alcohol. The union said the information has been leaked by ''people who want to see Josh Hamilton hurt personally and professionally.'' The Angels have confirmed Hamilton met with baseball officials in New York last week.
