Hampton (elbow) underwent Tommy John surgery Friday, Greg Joyce of the New York Post reports.
Analysis
Hampton traveled back to New York earlier this week to have his right elbow examined and received the worst possible news. If there's a silver lining, it's that having the operation in February will give him a chance to return for the start of the 2026 season, or at least early on in the campaign. The 23-year-old right-hander is regarded as one of the Yankees' top pitching prospects after turning in a 2.41 ERA with 16 strikeouts across 18.1 innings at three minor-league levels in 2024.
