2024 Fantasy Outlook
Hampton wasn't a traditional pop-up prospect, as 2023 was his pro debut, but he went from unrostered in most dynasty leagues to a top-100 prospect thanks to a dominant run at High-A and an adequate run at Double-A as a 21-year-old. The 6-foot-2 righty was a sixth-round pick out of Texas Tech in 2022 and he logged a 2.68 ERA, 1.00 WHIP and an elite 32.1 K-BB% in nine High-A starts. His BB% remained constant (8.4 to 8.5) after the jump to Double-A, while his K% dipped from 40.5 to 27.4, resulting in a still solid 19.0 K-BB%. Hampton's strong command of a plus mid-90s fastball with excellent movement is the key to his success. Off that 60-grade fastball, his above-average slider and above-average curveball play well, and he also mixes in a cutter and changeup. A lot can go wrong with any pitching prospect, but with good health, Hampton looks like a safe bet to develop into a No. 3 starter in the majors. He should debut in late-2024 or early-2025.

Shifts to 60-day IL
Double-A Somerset transferred Hampton (shoulder) from its 7-day injured list to the 60-day IL on Saturday.
ANALYSIS
Hampton has yet to make his 2024 debut after he contended with right shoulder discomfort coming out of spring training. According to Chris Kirschner of The Athletic, Yankees manager Aaron Boone said Hampton has resumed a throwing program, but the 22-year-old right-hander still looks to be at least a month away from joining the Somerset rotation.
