Hunter Renfroe has, at times, been an excellent Major League Baseball player. He mashed over 30 homers in each of the 2019 and 2021 regular seasons, has 177 dingers to his name for his big league career, and has banked over $27 million for his efforts at the game’s highest level so far.
What he’s not been, though, is great lately. And lately, he’s been a member of a Cincinnati Reds club that is scratching and clawing to stay in the race for a National League Wild Card spot in the playoffs, needing contributions from each and every spot on their active roster as they battle injury and inexperience in the race.
