Dbacks bop Rockies 13-7; Blackmon hitless, drops under .500

Bags two extra-base hits Hampson went 2-for-5 with a triple, double and a run scored Tuesday in the Rockies' 8-7 win over the Diamondbacks.
Impact Hampson drew his sixth straight start and his fifth in a row out of the leadoff spot, supplanting the slumping David Dahl for those duties. Since moving atop the lineup, Hampson has gone 2-for-2 on stolen-base attempts, and if he's able to come close to maintaining his .350 on-base percentage, he should continue to benefit from plenty of running opportunities. He'll hit leadoff again in Wednesday's series finale and man center field while Sam Hilliard checks out of the starting nine.

Leading off in third straight Hampson will lead off and bat second base Sunday against the Mariners, Patrick Saunders of The Denver Post reports.
Impact The Rockies appear to have settled on Hampson as their new leadoff man against left-handers, as he'll sit atop the lineup for a third straight game. He's gone 1-for-7 with a home run and three walks in the first two games of the series in Seattle.

Likely in utility role Hampson likely will begin the season in a reserve role and could operate as a utility player, Thomas Harding of MLB.com reports.
Impact The addition of the designated hitter to the National League this season should bring additional opportunities, but it appears to be a more indirect benefit for the 25-year-old. Beyond the utility usage, Hampson should see somewhat regular time at the keystone as starter Ryan McMahon should cover first base when Daniel Murphy serves as the DH. However, top prospect Brendan Rodgers and veteran Chris Owings are also in the mix as options at second base.

Remains primary first baseman Murphy has looked improved defensively at first base during spring and summer training and is expected to be the primary starter there in 2020, Thomas Harding of MLB.com reports.
Impact The implementation of the universal designated hitter for the shortened season should be a benefit for the 35-year-old, but manager Bud Black indicated the team's best lineup is with Murphy in the field. Still, the veteran slugger will see some time as the DH this season to help keep him fresh, especially with the limited off days. Starting second baseman Ryan McMahon likely will slide over to first base in those instances, while Garrett Hampson, Brendan Rodgers and Chris Owings split time at the keystone.
