PEORIA, Ariz. -- Padres prospect Hunter Renfroe spent his winter celebrating his marriage with bride Courtney Beach on the beaches of St. Lucia and hunting near his home in Mississippi.
But now it's back to work in Peoria.
Renfroe has proved himself a power hitter in the Padres' farm system. The outfielder spent time with both the Double-A San Antonio Missions and Triple-A El Paso Chihuahuas in 2015, hitting .272 with 20 home runs.
Renfroe is up for the challenge of proving himself worthy of a spot in the big leagues this spring, first by showing he can hit against Major League pitchers.
