The 6-foot-2, 220-pound Hamilton is a strike-throwing, upper-80s sinkerballer who also showed feel for a long breaking slider and usable changeup. King impressed on this look with strong control of an 88-91 mph fastball and an above average 77-79 mph changeup thrown with very good hand speed. The 6-foot-5, 230-pound right-hander struck out the side during his only inning pitched.
Sophomore right-handed pitcher, 6-foot-2, 210-pounds, solid strong build. Posted an 8-1 record with a 2.02 ERA his freshman year in 66.2 IP. Works out of a loose easy high slot. Worked at 88-90 mph with arm side action. Changeup showed well to LHH, above average fading action 81 mph. Curveball played at 75 mph, thrown more for strikes over swing and misses.
Athletic frame, lean build with strength, 6-foot-2, 180-pound right handed pitcher. Athletic delivery, works online, regular effort with rhythm. Arm action is loose and clean, quick arm, high ¾ slot. Fastball touched 88 mph, 85-86 mph, sinking action with heavy feel, showed feel for the bottom of the zone. Curveball has 11/5 shape, shorter action, has tendency to get underneath, occasional slurve action, 69-71 mph, showed control for the zone. Changeup is thrown with aggressive fastball arm speed, sinking action, 79-82 mph, high level potential. Hamilton is another high level prospect in a deep 2016 class in Wisconsin, his arm strength on the mound is highly advanced for his age and should be a highly sought after recruit.
