Garrett Hampson Continues Hot Start
4 years agoColorado Rockies second baseman and center fielder Garrett Hampson continued his torrid start to the season in the first game of a doubleheader against San Francisco on Tuesday. The speedy Hampson picked up a stolen base along with two singles and a run scored in the Rockies eight-run loss. Hampson now has 10 extra-base hits on the year over 27 games played, including three home runs. His seven stolen bases rank him behind only Whit Merrifield at second base. A perpetual sleeper who landed on many fantasy pundits' watch lists in 2019 and 2020, Hampson has broken out in 2021. Looking ahead, Hampson should continue his 15- to 20-home run pace along with his very appealing 35- to 45-stolen base pace. Savvy fantasy managers looking to add a speed option that does not hurt you in other categories should look to acquire Hampson.
