Hey @Mariners, looks like you have your opening day roster set.. Have any room for a hard throwing righty coming off a good spring? Not for me.. Asking for a friend #bringhimhome

[Layne Bruner @laynebruner17]

💪🏻 what a spring for the kid!

[Yankees Prospect Watch @NYY_Prospects]

Ian Hamilton tossed a pair of shutout innings today and did it against decent MLB talent.

Hamilton has been very sharp this Spring:

8.1 IP, 5 H, 0 R, 2 BB, 5 K
