Garrett Hampson Opts Out of Diamondbacks' Minor League Contract

News summary

Garrett Hampson has opted out of his minor league contract with the Arizona Diamondbacks ahead of the opt-out deadline, following a solid spring training performance where he hit .289 with seven RBIs. His departure leaves Ildemaro Vargas likely to secure the utility infielder role, as Vargas has excelled this spring with a .341 average. Hampson’s decision reflects the competitive nature of the Diamondbacks' infield roster, which has seen several players vying for limited spots. With Opening Day approaching, the front office faces critical decisions regarding roster composition. Hampson, an Article XX(b) free agent, can now return to free agency if not added to the roster by the team. His potential addition to another team is anticipated by fans who have supported him during his time with the Diamondbacks.
