Fastball
Hop+
A fastball with hop has a flat approach angle and visually jumps through the zone. When thrown up in the zone, it is more likely to generate a higher swing and miss average. Hop+ of 100 is MLB average.
Fastball
Sink+
A fastball with sink has low backspin and drops through the strike zone. When thrown down in the zone, it is more likely to generate a higher ground ball percentage and lower launch angle. Sink+ of 100 is MLB average.
Fastball
Rise+
A fastball with rise has a high percentage of backspin. When thrown up in the zone, it is more likely to generate a higher fly ball percentage. Rise+ of 100 is MLB average

Hamilton is 6-2 with a lankier athletic frame that has plenty of projection left to it. He hits from the right side from a balanced open athletic stance, strides on line, short smooth load back. Hips rotate completely and he maintains good lower half balance. Hands stay inside, attacks straight to the ball, slightly uphill line drive swing, showed a good approach using the whole field, potential to grow into some extra base power, exit velocity was 83. In the infield, rounds the ball and fields with a wider base and average hands, works through ball to a clean exchange, throws from a low three-quarters arm slot, short arm action position velocity was 75. Ran a 7.64 60 yard dash. On the mound, he throws from a lower three-quarters arm slot that he sometimes drops below sidearm, short free arm action and normal effort to his delivery. Shoulders are level and closed, lands closed with an athletic finish. Fastball was 74-78, with some late hard armside run that adds heavy sink to it when he drops down. Curveball had some armspeed and was 64-67 with gradual 11/5 break to it, break is more 10/4 to sweep from lower slot.
