HOUSTON — The Houston Astros say left-handed starting pitcher Mike Hampton will miss next season after undergoing surgery on his left shoulder.

A statement issued by the Astros on Tuesday say surgeons at the Hospital for Special Surgery in New York repaired a full left rotator cuff tear in Hampton’s pitching shoulder. Dr. David Altchek, the New York Mets’ medical director, also repaired partial damage to the labrum in the shoulder.
The 37-year-old lefty was 7-10 in 21 starts this season with a 5.30 ERA in 112 innings. He’s 148-115 in 409 career appearances with a 4.07 ERA in 2,264 career innings.
