Chase Hampton Odds for 2026
Chase Hampton
New York Yankees
There are no bets available at the moment.
Protected from Rule 5 Draft
The Yankees selected Hampton's (elbow) contract from Double-A Somerset on Tuesday.
Analysis
Hampton missed the entire 2025 season after undergoing Tommy John surgery in February, yet the Yankees will still grant him a place on their 40-man roster to shield him from the Rule 5 Draft in December. The 24-year-old righty will likely be sent back to Double-A once he's fully healthy, though it remains unclear whether he'll be back to full strength by the beginning of the 2026 season.
