As for Renfroe, there's not yet a timetable for his return. He's hitting .231/.287/.449 this season, and he's tied for the team lead with 16 homers.

Blash, who has 18 home runs and a .291 average for Triple-A El Paso, is expected to slot into Renfroe's spot in right field. In parts of two seasons in the organization, Blash has been great for El Paso, but he's struggled when he's received the big league call.

However, Blash's playing time has been largely sporadic, and this represents yet another a chance for him to turn around his fortunes with the Padres.
