2025 Fantasy Outlook
Hamilton has been an effective reliever for the Yankees when healthy - he sports a 3.10 ERA, 1.28 WHIP and 110:40 K:BB over 95.2 innings since joining New York in 2023 - but injuries continue to plague the 29-year-old. After dealing with two separate groin strains during the 2023 campaign, Hamilton missed extended time during the 2024 regular season due to a lat strain and concussion. Furthermore, he injured his calf during last year's ALCS and was ineligible to return for the World Series. While durability is a major concern, there's enough within Hamilton's profile to keep him on AL-only and deep league radars. Among relief pitchers with 30-plus innings last season, Hamilton's 17.7 percent swinging strike rate was a top-10 mark, suggesting he has the upside to produce a 30-plus percent strikeout rate. If healthy this spring, the right-hander will compete for middle relief duties. Read Past Outlooks

Activated from injured list
The Yankees activated Hamilton (illness) from the 15-day injured list Tuesday, Greg Joyce of the New York Post reports.
ANALYSIS
An infection caused a late start to the season for Hamilton, but he's ready to rejoin the Yankees bullpen after making three rehab appearances. Hamilton should eventually work his way back into being a high-leverage reliever, but he might be eased into such situations.

2024 Fantasy Outlook
Hamilton, who has been with six different organizations since he was drafted in the 11th round by the White Sox in 2016, appears to have finally found a home with the Yankees. After inking a minor-league deal with New York last February, the 28-year-old stuck around after spring training and earned a quick promotion to the big leagues in early April. The right-hander made 39 appearances, 22 of which were multi-inning outings, while showcasing his impressive slider (.156 BA, 42.5 percent whiff) en route to a 2.64 ERA, 1.22 WHIP and 69:26 K:BB ratio over 58 innings. Most of Hamilton's Statcast metrics were well above average save for his 10.9 percent walk rate (18th percentile), but his breakout season was halted by a two separate groin strains that required trips to the IL. If healthy, Hamilton figures to reprise his multi-inning relief role in 2024, while also serving as an occasional opener.
