Hunter Renfroe (OF, BOS) - Week 12 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12-Team Leagues

ROSTERED IN: 28% of leagues

ANALYSIS: Hunter Renfroe is largely known as a power-only, defense-first outfielder.  That isn't terribly inaccurate, as Renfroe has a career .232/.291/.480 slash line with 104 home runs.  In his first year in Boston, Renfroe's slash line is largely in line with his career numbers at .257/.302/.433 with seven homers, 31 runs, and 26 RBI.

This overall slash line does not reveal just how effective Renfroe has been of late.  Over his last 15 games, Renfroe has slashed .353/.421/.608 in 51 at-bats while regularly batting sixth in the Boston lineup.  Despite an elevated .304 BABIP, Renfroe's .334 xwOBA compared to a .317 wOBA suggests he's actually been unlucky and some more positive regression could be in the offing.  He's lifted his barrel percentage into the 70th percentile, and his average exit velocity sits in the 81st percentile.

Defense is often overlooked in fantasy, and in Renfroe's case it's the reason he's such a solid bet for a lot of playing time.  Manager Alex Cora has been committed to rotating much of his lineup, but Renfroe has been a stalwart in right field.  This allows him plenty of opportunities to accrue counting stats, especially in the RBI category lining up behind Alex Verdugo, J.D. Martinez, Xander Bogaerts, and Rafael Devers in the potent Red Sox batting order on a daily basis.  Fantasy managers would be wise to capitalize on the lineup opportunity and keep Renfroe around as long as he stays hot.
