Renfroe is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Yankees. Renfroe will head to the bench for the series finale in New York after he had picked up starts at either designated hitter or in right field in each of the past three contests while going 3-for-12 with a solo home run. Tommy Pham will cover right field Wednesday, while Adam Frazier gets a turn as the Royals' DH.

Renfroe went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in Monday's 10-4 loss to the Yankees. Renfroe has gone 4-for-12 with three RBI over three games since he returned from a hamstring strain he suffered in late August. The outfielder has made all three of his starts in right field since his return, pushing Tommy Pham to left field or designated hitter more regularly. For the year, Renfroe is at a .240/.313/.405 slash line with 13 homers, 50 RBI, 42 runs scored and a stolen base across 107 contests.

The Royals activated Renfroe (hamstring) from the 10-day injured list Thursday. Renfroe has been shelved since late August with a right hamstring strain but got through a rehab game this week with no issues. It's unclear how the Royals will make all the pieces fit, as they acquired Tommy Pham, Yuli Gurriel and Robbie Grossman since Renfroe was last active. He will likely start against most lefties, but it's possible he could ride the pine against some righties.

Renfroe (hamstring) will begin a rehab assignment with Double-A Northwest Arkansas on Wednesday. Renfroe went through a full workout Tuesday and will now test himself in a game setting. The 32-year-old could require just one rehab contest, as he is poised to rejoin the Royals' active roster this weekend if all goes well. Renfroe has been shelved since late August with a right hamstring strain.

Renfroe (hamstring) hit on the field and ran the bases at Kauffman Stadium on Monday, MLB.com reports. The Royals have yet to decide whether Renfroe will go out on a rehab assignment, but regardless, he is tracking toward a return from the 10-day injured list as soon as this weekend, just a few days after he's first eligible for activation. Renfroe has seen virtually all of his playing time this season in right field, but with Tommy Pham recently being added to the roster and with Vinnie Pasquantino (thumb) out for the season, the Royals could consider using Renfroe some at first base, where he has a bit of experience.
