The Los Angeles Angels acquired power-hitting outfielder Hunter

Renfroe in a trade with the Milwaukee Brewers for three young pitchers Tuesday night. Milwaukee receives right-handers Janson Junk and Elvis Peguero, and minor league lefty Adam Seminaris. Renfroe batted .255 with 29 home runs, 72 RBI and an .807 OPS in 125 games this season, his first with the Brewers. He led major league right fielders with 11 assists and ranked 10th in the National League with a .492 slugging percentage. Renfroe, who turns 31 in January, is eligible for arbitratio­n again and likely to get a raise after earning a $7.65 million salary this year. He can become a free agent after next season.
