They might eventually, but his BABIP is .50 points below his career average while his average exit velocity is right on what he's done his whole career.  And his 3B defense isn't bad.  I'm guessing the front office is still betting on some positive regression on his BABIP.  It's close to inevitable.  The question is how long can you wait for the inevitable.  Right now, .5 games out, and with Hamilton sitting on an option, I'd be a little surprised if Renfigo got DFAd before Hamilton went down.  Neither is likely to happen before June I don't think.

Also this is Rengifo this year.

vs RHP - .320 wOBA, .312 xwOBA, 103 wRC+

vs LHP - .131 wOBA, .252 xwOBA, -25 wRC+

He's been like the inverse Blake Perkins in that he has looked solid against RHP and has been pitcher-esque against LHP. Doesn't feel like a guy that needs to be DFA'd.

That bullpen chart >>>>> 

Having Drohan and Patrick giving the rest of the pen full reset days is incredible. What a gift to be able to say "we need to get this guy some work" going into games...

6 of our 8 guys have only thrown once in the last 5 days. Incredible.

I wish JoeyO was in the lineup tonight. He's been hitting better lately.

Feels weird going from 2 years ago having a huge black hole offensively at first base to now have Vaughn and Braun both producing.

Yep. Now we should fix third base.

Amazing win last night. If the Cubs can beat Miz today that brings momentum right back to them going into the finale. If we take Gm 2 they might straight melt down. Their Reddit board last night was a treat.

Good eye, Turang, as we used to say  as kids.

[liveforoctober]

Let's get some pitches on this guy's arm..

[Bulldogboy]

Id much rather see Bauers behind Yelich. Hope it doesn't hurt.

Yeah its crazy how good Braun is at over 40years old

[Sixtolezcano]

Might not to want to swing at pitches in the dirt Yelich.

Wouldn't have bet on Mitchell succeeding where Yelich and Bauers failed, but it beats a goose egg.

And it was a high fastball.  Is that his first hit this year of one of those?

[HarryDoyle]

Not liking the fact Miz can't locate right now.

[jason21nl]

Get him off this team

[RobertCrawley]

Ortiz makes that play.

[BruisedCrew]

Hamilton continues to be my least favorite Brewer. 

[BarremlensTSSC]

oh boy

[Slippery_Pete]

Why is Bunty on this team?
