Refsnyder will be the Yankees' everyday first baseman going forward according to manager Joe Girardi, the Lohud Yankees Blog reports.

EDGE Analysis

Say this for the Yankees' first base situation, it probably wasn't Refsnyder's .208/.259/.375 line that got him the everyday job. With Chris Parmelee (hamstring) hitting the DL, joining Mark Teixeira, Greg Bird, and Dustin Ackley, Refsnyder is the bench bat on the Yankees' roster that doesn't have significant playing time obligation elsewhere. His production in the majors comes from too small a sample to accurately predict his production going forward, but his .284/.366/.420 line in three seasons at Triple-A gives an indication that he should reach base at an okay clip while hitting for very little power.

Refsnyder is out of Wednesday's lineup against the Angels, Bryan Hoch of MLB.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Refsnyder has emerged as manager Joe Girardi's preferred option at first base with Mark Teixeira (knee) on the DL, as the 25-year-old has seen four straight starts there, but he'll head to the bench Wednesday. Chris Parmelee will handle the first base responsibilities and bat eighth against Jered Weaver.

Refsnyder will make a second straight start at first base Sunday against the Orioles, ESPN.com's Wallace Matthews reports.

EDGE Analysis

Refsnyder is a second baseman by trade, but it seems likely that manager Joe Girardi will utilize him primarily at first base going forward, as Mark Teixeira (knee) hit the DL on Saturday and could be at risk of missing the rest of the season. Though he lacks the power typically associated with a corner infield spot, Refsnyder has shown excellent contact and plate discipline in the minors, which could make him an asset near the bottom of the order. He's slated to hit eighth in Sunday's contest.

Refsnyder went 2-for-3 with a double, an RBI and two runs against the Tigers on Thursday.

EDGE Analysis

Refsnyder is making the most of his limited playing time, and he's gone 3-for-7 with two runs, two doubles and an RBI since he was recalled from Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre on Monday. He's going to have many opportunities, but those should increase over time if he keeps producing like this.

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

EDGE Analysis

Refsnyder will take the roster spot of Dustin Ackley, who was placed on the DL in a corresponding move due to a dislocated shoulder. Refsnyder recording just three at-bats during a prior stint with the Yankees this season, but is slashing .294/.340/.404 through 35 games at the Triple-A level. A concrete role has yet to be established for Refsnyder, as the Yankees are hopeful Mark Teixeira (neck) will be able to handle the majority of first base reps left behind by Ackley.

Refsnyder was optioned to Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes/Barre on Thursday, Sportsradio 66 WFAN's Sweeny Murti reports.

EDGE Analysis

Alex Rodriguez was activated from the DL on Thursday, so Refsnyder's presence as a depth option was no longer necessary. He should continue to loom at Triple-A as an option if the Yankees suffer further injuries.

Refsnyder went 1-for-3 with a pair of RBI in Saturday's win over the A's.

EDGE Analysis

The two-run double helped cap off a four-run fourth inning, and gave the Yankees a lead they wouldn't relinquish. Refsnyder got his first major league start of the season in Saturday's tilt, but it remains to be seen how long this big league stint will last, as Alex Rodriguez (hamstring) is due off the DL early in the week.

Refsnyder was called up from Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre on Tuesday, Josh Norris of Baseball America reports.

EDGE Analysis

Refsnyder has been impressive with the Triple-A club thus far, batting .293 with 10 RBI and six stolen bases, so the Yankees decided to reward him with a callup. There's no word as to who will be sent down to make room for the second baseman on the major league roster, although it may not be much of an issue considering he could very well be sent back to the minors once Alex Rodriguez (hamstring) returns from the disabled list Thursday. Regardless, Refsnyder may be limited in his time with New York as long as Starlin Castro keeps impressing as the Yankees' everyday second baseman.

Refsnyder went 0-for-3 with a walk during Sunday's game against Syracuse.

EDGE Analysis

The 25-year-old is batting just .190/.262/.241 through 15 games with Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre this season. Refsnyder impressed during his brief time with the Yankees last season, going 13-for-43 with two home runs and five RBI in 16 games. Even though he figures to be a central piece in the Yankees long-term plans, Refsnyder will likely spend most of his time in the minors this season barring a significant injury.

EDGE Analysis

With Starlin Castro and Dustin Ackley on hand to give the Yankees a right-handed and left-handed option at second base, Refsnyder's chances of winning a roster spot out of spring training were always considered fairly remote. He remains one of the better prospects in the Yankees' farm system, but it may take an injury for the 25-year-old to get an opportunity with the big club.
