Ideally this TIMESTAMP column would have a default declared at the server level:

CREATE TABLE mytable (
...

some_timestamp TIMESTAMP DEFAULT CURRENT_TIMESTAMP
)

otherwise you're using python-side defaults, so you'd need to write a 
post-table processing function:

from sqlalchemy import TIMESTAMP

def add_defaults(table):
   for c in table.c:
        if isinstance(c.type, TIMESTAMP):
             c.default = <some default>
            # ... or whatever you'd want here, c.server_default=FetchedValue(), 
etc
