I think your point is valid, but I disagree some. Winker needs to prove himself this year when he gets his chances, when he does that, then yes Winker needs to play over Hamilton.

My understanding is they are rotating the 4 outfielders. That isnt a bad thing, Hamilton normally has 2 stents on the DL every year from breaking down so giving him more rest may help.

This is basically year 2 for Winker, the pitchers have had a chance to figure him out, if he continues to have a good showing, then yes he should play over hamilton, no question.
