I read that there have been 2 balls hit on the roof in left field, Hunter last year and Hunter last night. He doesn't have to hit .250 to stay up if he is doing that on the regular. If he can stay off the DL then he will probably hit around 30+ HRs this year. Pretty close to Jose Bautista numbers and Bautista has been an Allstar numerous times. Hunter also doesn't really have that much help in the lineup other than Myers.
It was on a changeup. Thats impressive
Over his 101 games in MLB so far, he is batting .245 with 24 HR, 57 RBI and a.793 OPs - that's not a bad start to a career.
Correct, Big Mac is the Padres hitting coach. Renfroe has top 10 power in MLB and he keeps getting bigger and stronger. Padres lineup isn't all that terrible lately, they have some nice young players. Blash, Spangenburg, Renfroe are a nice young nucleus. Padres are trending up.
I'm still pissed the Braves didn't demand he be part of the J Upton or Kimbrel trades. I'd murder to have his bat sandwiched between Freeman & Kemp.
For busy people scanning this website....please don't start thread titles with "Renfroe killed...".
Here's a San Diego Times tribune article on how historic Renfroe's season has been.
The TLDR version - he is on pace to absolutely destroy the Padres rookie HR record if he stays healthy, and is already the first Padre rookie to ever hit 20 HR's and 20 doubles in his first 90 games.

His batting average has been on the rise the last 30-45 days while his strike outs have been on the decline. Renfro is a future perennial All Star, he will consistently hit between .260 to .280 with 35-45 HR's & 110 to 120 RBI's a year.
Not bad for a lightly recruited academy boy
