Designated for assignment Atlanta designated Hamilton for assignment Friday.

Impact Hamilton has allowed four runs with a 4:3 K:BB over 4.2 innings in low-leverage appearances out of the Atlanta bullpen this season. The 31-year-old accepted a previous outright assignment from Atlanta, so he could remain in the organization again if he passes through waivers.

Rejoins big-league bullpen Atlanta selected Hamilton's contract from Triple-A Gwinnett on Wednesday.

Impact Hamilton was knocked around for three runs over an inning of work in his lone appearance for Atlanta earlier this season. He's been much better at Gwinnett, however, with a 3.18 ERA and 28:6 K:BB over 22.2 innings. Hamilton will give the club a fresh bullpen arm.

Sent outright to Triple-A Atlanta outrighted Hamilton to Triple-A Gwinnett on Friday, Chad Bishop of The Atlanta Journal-Constitution reports.

Impact Hamilton was removed from the 40-man roster after giving up three runs in his lone appearance in the majors. Since he's been outrighted previously, Hamilton has the ability to decline the assignment and become a free agent, but it's unclear what his plans are.

DFA'd by Atlanta Atlanta designated Hamilton for assignment Wednesday.

Impact Hamilton was knocked around for three runs in an inning of work Tuesday versus the Nationals in his lone appearance with the big club. The 30-year-old has often been an effective middle reliever in the past, so it's possible there's interest in him via waivers.

Joins Atlanta bullpen Atlanta selected Hamilton's contract from Triple-A Gwinnett on Thursday.

Impact Hamilton didn't make the Opening Day roster after inking a split contract over the offseason, but he'll get a look with the big club now after allowing two runs with a 9:1 K:BB over his first 6.1 innings at Gwinnett. The 30-year-old has typically been pretty effective when healthy, authoring a 3.45 ERA and 152:62 K:BB over the last three seasons with the Yankees. He'll work in middle relief.

APRIL 16 • ROTOWIRE

Outrighted to Gwinnett Hamilton cleared waivers Thursday and was sent outright to Triple-A Gwinnett.

Impact Hamilton doesn't have any minor-league options remaining, so his demotion to Triple-A will cost him his place on Atlanta's 40-man roster. The 30-year-old righty made just two appearances in the Grapefruit League this spring, giving up one run on three hits and two walks while striking out one batter in 1.2 innings.

Signs with Atlanta Hamilton signed a one-year, non-guaranteed contract with Atlanta on Friday.

Impact Hamilton finished 2025 with a 4.28 ERA and 1.25 WHIP across 40 regular-season innings -- the worst numbers of his three-year tenure in the Bronx. The 30-year-old righty will now help bolster Atlanta's bullpen, but he's unlikely to receive many high-leverage opportunities with Raisel Iglesias, Robert Suarez, Dylan Lee and Joe Jimenez (knee) already on the roster.

He appeared in 36 regular-season games for the Bronx Bombers and logged four hold along with a 4.28 ERA and 1.25 WHIP over 40 innings.
