Hunter Renfroe

Hunter Renfroe was traded from San Diego along with Xavier Edwards in exchange for Tommy Pham on Thursday.

Fantasy Impact

The deal will be completed, pending physicals. Renfroe had minor foot surgery to remove a bone spur in September, but should be ready to go for spring training. He slashed .216/.298/.489 with 33 home runs, 64 RBI, 64 runs scored and five stolen bases across 494 plate appearances last season. Renfroe has some serious power, as he has belted at least 26 home runs the last three years. He should see everyday at-bats and flirt with 30-plus homers again in 2020.

The San Diego Padres are deep into talks to acquire outfielder Tommy Pham for outfielder Hunter Renfroe and top prospect Xavier Edwards, according to a report from MLB insider Jeff Passan.

Fantasy Impact

While Renfroe has flashed potential, he has not exactly lived up to the expectations of most scouts. A move to the Rays would give him a change of scenery and a move to a more hitter-friendly home ballpark, which could positively affect his fantasy value.

Hunter Renfroe will undergo surgery next month to remove a bone spur from the top of his foot.

Fantasy Impact

Renfroe has been paying with the issue for most of the second half and has been struggling mightily. He should have plenty of time to rehab before spring training and could wind up being a sleeper next year since the injury might've affected his season-long numbers.

Hunter Renfroe went 0-for-3 with a walk as the Padres fell to the Dodgers 1-0 on Thursday.

Fantasy Impact

Renfroe is batting just .101 with a .453 OPS since August 11th. It's worth noting he was playing through an injury for part of that time, however. The 27-year-old was fantastic in the first half and has 33 homers on the year. If this second-half slump is due solely to injury then he could wind up a draft-day value come 2020.

Hunter Renfroe went 0-for-3 with two walks and two runs scored in the Padres' 6-4 win over the D'backs on Sunday.

Fantasy Impact

Renfroe homered in two of his previous three starts entering this one, and has mostly looked better since returning from an ankle injury this week. His second-half numbers were largely affected by his injury.
