I honestly don't think we saw enough to know how good he could be or not be at baseball.

Nope
In 2020 he comes out late for baseball. He begins in late January and earns his first start in the fourth game of the season and starts on 6 of the next 8 games. He gets hurt before the first day of March. He plays for about five weeks.

He missed fall ball and comes out for the 2021 season and finds a crowded outfield. He

2020 in limited play he had every opportunity to play, and he got it. Why would you think that PM would not treat him the same in 2021 if he was measuring up?

He was up against Dugas in left. Gio had CF seen up and Crews RF. Even when Gio is injured Drost a promising freshman was waiting in the wings.

Now why didn’t PM give him a few more ABs? I don’t know snd neither does anyone here, but it’s not like Hampton got short changed in 2020. I have to conclude he was getting beat out by others who were in baseball year round.
