I know it's been talked about some but Renfroe is absolutely mashing at A+, look at these current numbers.
66 games, .296 Bavg, 42 R, 19 2B, 16 HR, 52 RBI, 9 SB, .369 OBP, .562 SLG, .961 OPS.
we got us a mini-Trout in minor leagues right now boys. Ok maybe not quite but still he is killing it.

Side note- did Adidas design the Eugene Emeralds uniforms.
I'm thinking that Renfroe will finish up the year in AA- which I believe is San Antonio for the Padres if I'm not mistaken.
Correct. I think he will be called up to double a shortly. Will struggle a little bit early. Then get better closer to seasons end. Will get invited to spring training next spring. He will start next year in double a then be a call up for the padres.
well... he is a 5-tool player. he's got 5 tools.
He also has like an 11 game hitting streak
I didn't know the emeralds had stepped up to A+. Back when I was in Eugene they were short season rookie ball.
He's not currently with the Ems...he's with the Lake Elsinore Storm. That's the A+ program for the Padres.Quote:

Because in terms of power, speed, defensive ability, and arm strength, there may only be a handful of players right now at the MLB level who can compare.
