The Royals released Renfroe on Wednesday.
Renfroe went unclaimed on waivers after being DFA'd by Kansas City on Friday, and he'll now be pushed out of the organization. The 33-year-old outfielder was in the midst of the worst season of his career, slashing .182/.241/.242 across 108 plate appearances, and he's unlikely to attract more than a minor-league offers at this point.
