2021 Projections
2021 Fantasy Outlook
Rengifo was said to be traded to the Dodgers along with Andy Pages in exchange for Joc Pederson, but Angels owner Arte Moreno nixed the deal. That was just the beginning of a tumultuous 2020 for Rengifo. He was placed on the IL in early July for undisclosed reasons and then battled hamstring tightness later in the month, costing him a spot on the Opening Day roster. His season was bookended by more hamstring trouble, and Rengifo also battled a thumb sprain in September. In 106 PA around all the injuries, Rengifo was awful and even demoted at one point due to poor performance. There are some glimmers of light including a 13.4 BB% and three steals on four attempts. Rengifo was also playing in the Dominican Winter League, so he's ostensibly healthy again. Jose Iglesias was brought in this winter to play shortstop, which leaves Rengifo to likely fill a utility role to begin 2021. Read Past Outlooks
RANKS

Cleared for winter ball
Dominican Winter League club Leones del Escogido announced Monday that Rengifo (hamstring) will be included on the team's roster.
ANALYSIS
Rengifo finished the 2020 campaign on the 10-day injured list after suffering a right hamstring strain in late September, but the fact that he's on a winter ball roster implies that he's back to full strength. Unless the Angels bring in a replacement for free agent Andrelton Simmons this offseason, Rengifo and David Fletcher tentatively slot in as Los Angeles' projected regulars in the middle infield in 2021.

Stat Review
How does Luis Rengifo compare to other hitters?
This section compares his stats with all batting seasons from the previous three seasons (minimum 400 plate appearances)*. The bar represents the player's percentile rank. For example, if the bar is halfway across, then the player falls into the 50th percentile for that stat and it would be considered average.
* Exit Velocity and Barrels/PA % are benchmarked against 2019 data (min 400 PA) and Hard Hit Rate is benchmarked against last season's data (min 400 PA). See here for more exit velocity/barrels stats plus an explanation of current limitations with that data set.

Past Fantasy Outlooks
2020
2019
Rengifo played most of the season at the big-league level before a hamate injury ended his season. The impressive thing for Rengifo is that he played the season as a 22-year-old, so we can somewhat forgive his below-average production. Throughout the minors, he was a high-contact hitter who was willing to accept his walks and take bases when opportunities presented themselves. Last year, he was still able to get on base at a decent clip even though he struggled to hit for average adjusting to major-league pitching. The switch hitter has the athleticism to play both second and short as he did last year, but only qualifies at his true home (second base) on draft day. We can see Rengifo hitting for a better average in 2020, but the fact he was thrown out stealing in five of his seven attempts last year is going to make it tough to project a spike in steals, and he faces more obstacles to playing time now following a trade to the Dodgers.
