Refsnyder was recalled from Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre on Tuesday.

EDGE Analysis

Refsnyder will take the roster spot of Greg Bird, who landed on the disabled list earlier Tuesday with a bruised right ankle. The 26-year-old has seen time with the Yankees over each of the last two seasons, slashing a combined .262/.332/.354 across 195 at-bats. It likely won't be a long stay in the majors for Refsnyder, who doesn't have a clear path to playing time with Bird and Chris Carter ahead of him on the depth chart at first base.
