Garrett Hampson Signs With Reds After Stint With Diamondbacks

The move to the Reds comes ahead of their game against the Chicago Cubs at Great American Ball Park. Hampson's batting average this season is .167 over 18 games, with 5 hits in 30 at-bats. He has 2 stolen bases and 9 walks but has not recorded any home runs or RBIs.

This transaction might impact Matt McLain and Santiago Espinal, who are currently in the second base and third base spots on the depth chart. Hampson has played 12 games as a starter this season, with his most recent games showing a .300 average over the last 5 games. The upcoming game will test how he fits into the Reds' lineup dynamics.
