First-ever start at first base Rengifo will make his first professional start at first base in Thursday's game versus the Blue Jays.

Impact Injuries have forced the Brewers to scramble a bit, and they will give Rengifo a shot at first base. Rengifo is off to an uninspiring .128/.180/.213 start at the plate this season and has been playing second fiddle to David Hamilton at third base.

Run of starts comes to end Rengifo is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Nationals.

Impact Rengifo will take a seat after he had started at third base in each of the last six games while going just 2-for-25 with a pair of doubles and a walk during that stretch. The Brewers should continue to open up regular at-bats for Rengifo against left-handed pitching, but he'll likely need to perform better in order to earn more consistent opportunities versus righties.

Collecting fourth straight start Rengifo will start at third base and bat sixth in Wednesday's game against the Red Sox.

Impact Rengifo will cover third base for a fourth straight game after going 2-for-14 with a pair of doubles and a run scored over the previous three contests. Despite the recent uptick in playing, Rengifo won't necessarily be in line for an everyday role moving forward. He's benefited from Milwaukee facing two left-handed starters during this four-game stretch, as well as Brice Turang being held out of the lineup for the latter two contests while battling what appears to be a minor ankle injury.

APRIL 8 • ROTOWIRE

Back on bench Wednesday Rengifo is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Rays.

Impact Rengifo had been included in the lineup in each of the Brewers' last three games, though two of those starts came against left-handed pitching. At least for the early part of the season, the left-handed-hitting David Hamilton looks poised to see most of the starts at third base against right-handed pitching, so Rengifo will have to settle for more of a utility role.

Absent from Opening Day lineup Rengifo is out of the lineup for Thursday's opening day matchup with the White Sox.

Impact The 29-year-old joined the Brewers on a one-year, $3.5 million contract in February, but it'll be David Hamilton that starts at the hot corner Opening Day. Rengifo and Hamilton seem likely to split playing time at third base to begin the season.

MARCH 26 • ROTOWIRE

Likely to share time at hot corner Rengifo is likely to share playing time at third base with David Hamilton, Adam McCalvy of MLB.com reports.

Impact McCalvy lists Rengifo as the Brewers' expected primary third baseman, but he also notes that it's possible the left-handed-hitting Hamilton starts Opening Day versus White Sox righty Shane Smith. Rengifo is a switch hitter but has historically been much better against lefties (.749 OPS) than righties (.665 OPS). A strict platoon is unlikely, as manager Pat Murphy figures to be fluid in how he doles out playing time at the hot corner. Prospects Jett Williams and/or Cooper Pratt could also push their way into the third-base mix at some point this season.

Former Angels infielder Luis Rengifo agrees to terms with Brewers, AP source says

A person familiar with the situation says ormer Los Angeles Angels infielder Luis Rengifo has agreed to terms on a one-year, $3.5 million contract with the Milwaukee Brewers

FEBRUARY 14 • Associated Press

Signs one-year deal with Brewers The Brewers signed Rengifo to a one-year contract Friday, Mark Feinsand of MLB.com reports.

Impact Rengifo had a disappointing walk year with the Angels last season, slashing just .238/.287/.335 with nine home runs and 10 stolen bases over 147 contests. However, he hit a solid .273/.323/.431 across the three seasons prior to that and will turn just 29 later this month. Rengifo should be the new favorite to start at third base for Milwaukee, though he also offers the versatility to operate in a super utility role, if that's what the club prefers.

Blasts ninth homer Rengifo went 1-for-4 with a two-run home run in Thursday's 5-2 loss to the Brewers.

Impact Rengifo's playing time has picked up a bit while he has filled in for Yoan Moncada (ankle) at third base over the last few days, though Moncada was able to appear as a pinch hitter Thursday. Rengifo has gone 10-for-53 (.189) over 16 games in September while slipping into a utility role as the Angels get a look at some prospects in an injury-riddled infield. For the season, Rengifo has nine homers, 43 RBI, 53 runs scored, 10 stolen bases and a .240/.291/.340 slash line, with that .631 OPS being his worst in four years.

Sitting in second straight Rengifo is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Mariners.

Impact For the second day in a row, Rengifo will take a seat in favor of rookie Christian Moore, who will cover second base and bat fifth in the series finale. At 69-80, the Angels are effectively eliminated from playoff contention, so it wouldn't be surprising if the club moved Rengifo into a utility role over the final two weeks in order to open up regular playing time for Moore, who is viewed as the organization's long-term future at the keystone.

Taking seat Saturday Rengifo isn't in the lineup for Saturday's game against Seattle, Erica Weston of Bally Sports West reports.

Impact Despite collecting a base hit in each of the first two games of the series, Rengifo will retreat to the bench to begin Saturday's contest. Christian Moore will start at second base instead during his first day back in the majors and bat fifth against right-hander Bryan Woo.

Late addition to lineup Rengifo will start at second base and bat sixth against the Mariners on Thursday, Jeff Fletcher of The Orange County Register reports.

Impact Rengifo was originally slated to have a day off Thursday while Chris Taylor mans the keystone. However, Taylor will now be sent to right field to cover for Jo Adell (illness), and Rengifo will start at second base. The 28-year-old owns a .577 OPS since the start of September and has logged just two hits in his last five games.

Idle Thursday Rengifo isn't in the lineup for Thursday's game against the Mariners, Jeff Fletcher of The Orange County Register reports.

Impact The Halos will give Rengifo a day off after the 28-year-old went 2-for-16 with three RBI over his last five games. Chris Taylor will man the keystone instead Thursday and bat sixth.
