Scouting Report
No. 22 ranked player in NY's class of 2015 is Nicholas Hamilton, OF (Lockport HS) who stands 6-foot-0, 170-pounds exploded onto the national scene catching the eye of college and professional scouts with his high-level athleticism this past year. Almost slipping under-the-radar, Hamilton was selected in the amateur MLB Draft today in the 11th round by the Boston Red Sox. He is an outstanding runner evidenced by his 6.37 - 6.6 60 time who roams the outfield with ease. He plays his summer baseball for a team based out of Canada (Great Lake Canadians), but goes to HS in Lockport NY. Very gifted, crude athlete who needs more time in the box, and around the game. Works with a simple approach, high-end athlete that will greatly improve in the Red Sox minor league development system.
