Luis Rengifo is a third baseman for the Milwaukee Brewers. In 2026 he hit 4 home runs and knocked in 36 RBIs, notching 74 hits across 354 plate appearances in 95 games. His batting average was .237, 2.8% lower than the league average of .244. He reached base at a .316 clip and slugged .314, for an OPS of .630, 12.3% lower than the league mark of .719 — 14th of 16 on his team, and 360th of 465 among MLB batters with 100+ plate appearances. He averaged 86.5 mph off the bat, hit 34.6% of balls in play at 95 mph or better, barrelled 3.0% of them and made contact on 79.9% of his swings. Adjusted for his ballpark and league, his 79 wRC+ puts his offence 21% below average. That comes to 0.4 dbWAR — -8.7 runs with the bat, -0.1 for the ballpark, -1.0 on the bases, +2.8 on double plays, +0.1 for the position he plays, against replacement level. It includes no fielding: defensive runs are proprietary and are not estimated here, so the figure credits playing a demanding position but not playing it well.
