  • Cardinals' Garrett Hampson: Another start against lefty

    Hampson will start in center field and bat ninth in Thursday's game versus the Cubs.

    A waiver claim earlier this week, Hampson has now started back-to-back games in center field against left-handed pitching. It appears the utility player will form the short side of a platoon at the position with Victor Scott.

  • Cardinals' Garrett Hampson: Claimed by Cardinals

    The Cardinals claimed Hampson off waivers from the Reds on Tuesday.

    The utility player will offer protection all over the field for the Cardinals but is unlikely to play much. Hampson, 30, is a career .238/.301/.357 hitter over parts of eight major-league seasons.

  • Reds' Garrett Hampson: Dropped from 40-man roster

    The Reds designated Hampson for assignment Sunday.

    Hampson doesn't have minor-league options remaining, so the Reds needed to move him off the 40-man roster in order to recall outfielder Rece Hinds from Triple-A Louisville. If he clears waivers, Hampson could remain in the organization and report to Louisville, or he could elect for free agency. Though he brings speed and defensive versatility to the table, Hampson may struggle to land a big-league deal with another club after slashing .167/.310/.188 over 60 plate appearances in the majors with Arizona and Cincinnati this season.

  • Reds' Garrett Hampson: Starts in left field

    Hampson started in left field and went 0-for-3 in Wednesday's 11-2 loss to the Guardians.

    With left-hander Logan Allen on the bump for Cleveland, manager Terry Francona replaced his lefty-batting outfielders, including Hampson in left field for Will Benson. The news that Austin Hays (foot) has stalled in his recovery opens the door for continued outfield opportunities for Hampson against southpaws. Francona typically sits Benson and Jake Fraley when the Reds face southpaws.

  • Reds' Garrett Hampson: Gets MLB deal from Reds

    The Reds signed Hampson to a one-year contract Friday.

    Hampson was cut loose by the Diamondbacks earlier this week after slashing only .167/.359/.167 over 41 plate appearances, but he has quickly landed on his feet with a new big-league contract. The 30-year-old will serve in a utility role for Cincinnati.

  • Garrett Hampson: Cut loose by Arizona

    The Diamondbacks released Hampson on Sunday.

    After Arizona designated him for assignment last Monday, Hampson ended up clearing waivers, but he won't stick around in the organization and will explore his options on the open market. The 30-year-old utility player saw action in 18 games with the Diamondbacks prior to being removed from the 40-man roster, slashing .167/.359/.167 with two stolen bases, 10 runs and zero RBI over 41 plate appearances.

  • Diamondbacks' Garrett Hampson: Booted off 40-man roster

    The Diamondbacks designated Hampson for assignment Monday.

    Hampson will lose his spot on the Arizona roster with the Diamondbacks calling up top prospect Jordan Lawlar from Triple-A Reno in a corresponding move. After attending spring training with the Diamondbacks as a non-roster invitee, Hampson was able to secure a utility role with the big club heading into Opening Day. He saw limited action over the first month and a half of the season, appearing in 18 games and slashing .167/.359/.167 with two steals across 41 plate appearances. Hampson's speed and defensive versatility could entice another team to put in a waiver claim for him and bring him aboard as a bench bat.

  • Diamondbacks' Garrett Hampson: Starts in center field

    Hampson started in center field and went 0-for-2 in Tuesday's 5-1 win over the Mets.

    Hampson made a second consecutive start in center field in place of Alek Thomas against a left-hander. Thomas, who is routinely out of lineups against lefties, made a start against a southpaw last week, but that appears to have been a one-game event. Hampson is 0-for-3 with two walks and two runs scored in the two starts and is batting .167 overall through 17 games.

  • Diamondbacks' Garrett Hampson: Will remain in utility role

    Hampson will continue in a utility role while Tim Tawa gets the majority of playing time at second base in place of the injured Ketel Marte (hamstring), Paige Leckie of MLB.com reports. "Yeah, I think we'll still put Garrett into that role of, you know, primary backup, occasional starting," Diamondbacks manager Torey Lovullo said.

    Hampson filled in for Marte on Friday when he was removed in the first inning of Arizona's 6-4 win over the Nationals. The club placed Marte on the injured list Saturday and called up Tawa for his MLB debut. Hampson entered Saturday's game in the ninth inning as a pinch runner for third baseman Eugenio Suarez.

  • Diamondbacks' Garrett Hampson: Steps in at second base

    Hampson replaced an injured Ketel Marte (hamstring) at second base and went 1-for-3 with a walk, a stolen base and two runs scored in Friday's 6-4 win over Washington.

    Hampson entered as a pinch runner when Marte pulled up on a first-inning double. The injury was determined to be a left hamstring strain, and there's no timetable for his recovery. Hampson is expected to fill in for the final two games of the series and could continue on as the primary second baseman should Marte require more than a few days to heal. If Marte is added to the injured list, it's possible the Diamondbacks could call up a body from Triple-A Reno that can play second base. Hampson is 1-for-6 with three walks, one steal and three runs scored through four games this season.

  • Diamondbacks' Garrett Hampson: Ignominious Arizona debut

    Hampson entered as a pinch runner and was responsible for the final out of the game in Saturday's 4-3 loss to the Cubs.

    The veteran utility player prevailed over Ildemaro Vargas for Arizona's final roster spot partially due to his speed. Unfortunately for Hampson, who was making his debut with his new team, an over-aggressive play on the basepaths led to the game-ending out -- he took a wide turn at third base on Corbin Carroll's slow chopper to short, and got caught when Dansby Swanson faked a throw to first. Hampson isn't likely to offer much fantasy value in his bench role anyway, but moments like this won't earn him more playing time.

  • Diamondbacks' Garrett Hampson: Added to Arizona's roster

    The Diamondbacks selected Hampson to the major-league roster Sunday.

    The 30-year-old exercised the opt-out clause of his minor-league contract with Arizona on Friday, and the organization elected to fully bring him aboard rather than let him hit free agency. Hampson has a .300/.396/.375 slash line through 17 spring games, though he posted a career-worst .575 OPS in 113 regular-season contests for Kansas City last year. He likely won't have fantasy relevance while filling a utility role.

  • Diamondbacks' Garrett Hampson: Exercises out-out clause

    Hampson exercised the opt-out clause in his minor-league contract Friday, Nick Piecoro of The Arizona Republic reports.

    Hampson remains in the running for a spot on the Diamondbacks' Opening Day bench, but triggering his opt-out clause now allows him to reach free agency if he does not make the team. The utility player is battling Ildemaro Vargas for Arizona's final bench spot.

  • Diamondbacks' Garrett Hampson: Swipes bag, knocks in two Sunday

    Hampson started in left field and went 1-for-2 with a walk, a stolen base and two RBI in Sunday's spring game against San Diego.

    Hampson remains in the mix for the final rotation spot along with Ildemaro Vargas and Jordan Lawlar. The Diamondbacks likely want a utility player, which precludes Lawlar, who doesn't offer much position versatility at this point. Plus, it's unlikely the organization wants the prospect sitting on a bench in the majors. That leaves Hampson (.738 OPS, two steals, seven RBI, 13 spring games) and Vargas (.971 OPS, five extra-base hits, seven RBI, 15 games) as the most likely competitors for the 26th spot on the roster.

  • Diamondbacks' Garrett Hampson: Agrees to NRI deal with Arizona

    The Diamondbacks signed Hampson to a minor-league contract Friday that includes an invitation to spring training.

    Hampson slashed only .230/.275/.300 with zero home runs and seven stolen bases over 113 regular-season contests with the Royals in 2024. The 30-year-old played seven different positions for Kansas City and will operate as a utility player, either in Arizona or at Triple-A Reno.

  • Royals' Garrett Hampson: On base three times in nightcap

    Hampson went 2-for-4 with a walk, one RBI and a stolen base in a 9-4 win over the Guardians in Game 2 of Monday's doubleheader.

    Hampson has been a regular in the lineup versus southpaws in August. That said, he hasn't done much, batting just .175 (7-for-40) with no extra-base hits and two walks over 15 contests. Hampson has yet to hit a home run this year, adding 12 doubles, one triple, 14 RBI, 14 runs scored and seven stolen bases while slashing .239/.281/.314 across 201 plate appearances.

  • Royals' Garrett Hampson: Getting another start vs. lefty

    Hampson will start in left field and bat eighth in Monday's game against the Red Sox.

    Hampson will stay in the starting nine for the fourth time in five games, but the Royals have faced left-handed starters or primary pitchers in each of the past three contests. The speedy utility man still looks to be stuck in a short-side platoon role.
