School: Montgomery Bell Academy HS, Nashville, Tenn. Drafted/Committed: Vanderbilt
Age At Draft: 19.3
Hamilton is a 6-foot-4, 195-pound righthander who has flashed impressive pure velocity in spurts. He touched 96 mph at the 2024 Perfect Game National showcase in a short outing, though later in the summer at East Coast Pro and the Area Code Games, he sat more in the upper 80s and low 90s and topped out at 93. The pitch misses bats with solid carry, and he will also mix in a lower spin, slurvy breaking ball in the upper 70s and lower 80s, as well as a mid-80s changeup that needs a bit more feel. Hamilton is old for the class and will be 19 on draft day which will also make him a draft-eligible sophomore if he makes it to campus at Vanderbilt.
