Garrett Hampson Fantasy Stats

Kansas City Royals outfielder Garrett Hampson contributed in a lot of different areas in Thursday night's 10-4 win over the Los Angeles Angels. Hampson went 2-for-3 with a double, an RBI, a stolen base, a run scored and a walk at the bottom of the Royals' batting order. The 29-year-old is currently hitting .268/.302/.317 with no home runs, three RBI, four stolen bases and five runs scored in just 41 at-bats in 2024. The former third-round pick of the Colorado Rockies in 2016 out of Long Beach State offers plenty of defensive versatility but is merely an option for fantasy baseball managers in AL-only leagues because he's currently on the short side of a platoon with Kyle Isbel in center field for the Royals.

The Kansas City Royals signed free-agent infielder/outfielder Garrett Hampson to a one-year, $2 million deal on Wednesday, according to sources. Hampson hit the open market this offseason after he was non-tendered by the Miami Marlins. The 29-year-old utility man saw action at shortstop, second base, third base and all over the outfield in 2023 for the Fish and was productive at the plate as well, slashing .276/.349/.380 with three home runs, 12 doubles, a triple, 23 RBI, five stolen bases and 30 runs scored in 98 games played in his first year away from Colorado. Hampson isn't an everyday player at the big-league level, but he could have a shot to play even more in 2024 with the rebuilding Royals. Hampson has only 29 career home runs with a .241 batting average in six seasons in the majors.

Miami Marlins utility player Garrett Hampson will hit out of the leadoff spot for just the third time this season Tuesday night against Washington Nationals right-hander Josiah Gray. Signed to a minor-league deal following his release from the Colorado Rockies, Hampson has managed to appear in 26 games with the Marlins this season while producing solid figures at the plate. The 28-year-old is hitting .262 with one homer, two stolen bases, and a .725 OPS across 69 trips to the plate. That production is 2% below the league average, as per his 98 wRC+, while Hampson has seen time at second base, shortstop, right field, and center field. He will man center field on Tuesday while taking on a pitcher in Gray who sports a 2.96 ERA but also a 4.36 FIP and 4.72 SIERA across eight starts.

Miami Marlins second baseman Garrett Hampson is making the start in right field and is hitting ninth in the batting order on Friday against the Chicago Cubs and left-hander Justin Steele. Along with playing some right field while Avisail Garcia (back) is on the injured list, Hampson is also seeing playing time at shortstop in Miami with Joey Wendle (intercostal) injured. It's good news for the 28-year-old in NL-only leagues, but he doesn't have a ton of upside otherwise. Hampson is currently hitting .250 (13-for-52) with six doubles, one home run, five RBI, two stolen bases and eight runs scored in his first 20 games in 2023. He won't hold much DFS intrigue in the nine-hole on Friday.

Miami Marlins infielder Garrett Hampson went 2-for-4 with a run scored, a walk and two strikeouts in Wednesday's 5-2 extra-inning loss to the San Francisco Giants and also added his first stolen base of the season while starting at shortstop. Hampson could continue to see more starts at the 6 in Miami if Jon Berti continues to struggle with his glove. However, the 28-year-old Hampson won't bring a ton of offensive upside for fantasy managers in deeper leagues, especially at the bottom of the batting order. In his first nine games of the year in his first season with the Fish, Hampson has four hits in 18 at-bats (.222 average) with a double, home run, two RBI, one stolen base and three runs scored in 20 plate appearances.

Colorado Rockies infielder Garrett Hampson (hand) is expected to be activated from the 10-day injured list on Monday. The young infielder has been sidelined since April 17 due to a right hand contusion. Hampson has been playing in the minor leagues without any issues, so it appears that he is ready to return to the MLB roster. Before the injury, Hampson was struggling at the plate, but it was a small sample size. He isn't someone worth holding in most fantasy formats while he's struggling with the bat.

Colorado Rockies infielder Garrett Hampson (hand) will head to a rehab assignment with the Triple-A Albuquerque Isotopes on Saturday. Hampson is expected to play Saturday and Sunday with an eye on returning to the Rockies in time for their Tuesday game against the Washington Nationals. Hampson hasn't done much on the field this season, picking up just one hit in nine at-bats while scoring two runs and notching a steal.

Colorado Rockies infielder/outfielder Garrett Hampson (hand) took soft toss in the batting cages on April 26 and took batting practice on the field on April 27. It could take a couple batting practice sessions before he goes on a minor league rehab assignment. Hampson is currently on the injured list with a bruised right hand, but he could be close to a return to the Rockies if he doesn't suffer any setbacks on a rehab assignment. The 27-year-old was off to a slow start this year before his injury, getting just one hit in nine at-bats over three games with two walks and two strikeouts.

The Colorado Rockies placed second baseman/outfielder Garrett Hampson (hand) on the 10-day injured list on Sunday with a bruised right hand and recalled infielder Colton Welker from Triple-A Albuquerque in a corresponding move. Hampson has played in only three games so far this year, going 1-for-9 with a stolen base, two walks and two strikeouts in 12 plate appearances. It's unclear when he suffered the bruised hand. Brendan Rodgers will start at the keystone once again on Sunday and hit sixth against Chicago Cubs left-hander Drew Smyly. Welker will serve as infield depth for Colorado after hitting .189 with no home runs and two RBI in his first 40 major league plate appearances in 2021.

Colorado Rockies outfielder Garrett Hampson is absent from the starting lineup for Wednesday's game against the Los Angeles Dodgers. Sam Hilliard is manning center field for the game while Raimel Tapia is leading off. Hampson has been the team's primary leadoff hitter lately and he's been producing some decent results. Over 16 games this month, he's slashing .264/.328/.509 with 12 runs scored. He ranks in the 99th percentile in sprint speed and he's stolen 17 bases over 24 attempts on the year. With his lack of power (.369 xSLG), he'll need to run more often and more efficiently in order to become a more attractive fantasy option. As it currently stands, he's only worth a roster spot in NL-only leagues and deep five-outfielder leagues.
