Timothy William Alexander Hamulack (born November 14, 1976) was drafted by the Astros in 1995. Acquired by the Red Sox in 2003 he was one of the first wave of Theo Epstein's system of stocking as many potential "live arms" in the high minors. His makeup was impressive - a large, lefthanded reliever whose fastball could reach the mid-90s with a decent change. However he was never able to put it all together with Boston and signed with the Mets after only one season in the Sox' system.
