We're encouraged by that, even though it's going to be a few weeks."The two-time All-Star is hitting .278 with 84 hits, eight home runs and 34 runs batted in in 72 games this season. The Rockies called up infielder Garrett Hampson from Triple-A Albuquerque and designated infielder Daniel Castro for assignment before Saturday's game.Hampson was in the starting lineup for Colorado at second base against Arizona.
