LF/RF/DH BOS
Refsnyder started in center field, batted leadoff and went 0-for-4 with a walk in Monday's 7-2 loss to the Blue Jays.
EDGE Analysis
Refsnyder took over in center field for Jarren Duran, who is unvaccinated for COVID-19 and thus unable to enter Canada. Refsnyder has been productive since coming up to Boston earlier this month, going 10-for-24 (.417) with five RBI and seven runs scored prior to Monday's game. He's expected to remain in the lineup for the final two games of the series in Toronto.

Refsnyder went 1-for-2 with a walk, a double, an RBI and a run scored in Friday's 6-3 win over Cleveland.
EDGE Analysis
Refsnyder walked as a pinch hitter for Jackie Bradley in the seventh inning and got two more plate appearances over the final two innings. His ninth-inning double produced Boston's final run. With Jarren Duran (unvaccinated) unable to travel to Toronto next week and Enrique Hernandez (hip) batting an injury, Refsnyder should see action in the three-game set beginning Monday and stick on the MLB roster for the immediate future. During his callup to Boston, Refsnyder is 10-for-24 (.417) with one home run, two doubles, five RBI and seven runs over eight games.

Refsnyder went 2-for-4 with a two-run home run, a double and an additional run in Wednesday's 6-2 win against the Tigers.
EDGE Analysis
Refsnyder broke a 2-2 tie with his two-run shot to left field in the third inning, and he scored after smacking a double in the fifth. This was his fifth straight appearance with at least one hit, and he has gone 8-for-16 (.500) with four RBI over that span. He's hitting a robust .408 in 32 plate appearances on the campaign.

Refsnyder (undisclosed) is starting in right field and batting leadoff Sunday versus the Cardinals, Pete Abraham of The Boston Globe reports.
EDGE Analysis
Refsnyder hasn't been in the lineup since Tuesday while dealing with some general soreness, but he'll rejoin the starting nine for Sunday's series finale. He's hit well since being promoted June 9, going 6-for-13 with an RBI and four runs scored.

Red Sox manager Alex Cora said Wednesday during his appearance on SportsRadio 93.7 WEEI-FM's "Merloni, Fauria, & Mego" program that Refsnyder is "banged up" coming out of Tuesday's 6-1 win over the Athletics.
EDGE Analysis
Refsnyder, who went 3-for-4 with a run and an RBI on Tuesday while making his second straight start in center field, doesn't sound like he'll be included in the lineup for Wednesday's contest. With Cora also confirming that Christian Arroyo (illness) tested positive for COVID-19, Jarren Duran will be called up from Triple-A Worcester and will pick up a start in the outfield Wednesday.

Refsnyder went 3-for-4 with a run and a sacrifice fly during Tuesday's 6-1 win over the Athletics.
EDGE Analysis
Refsnyder hit leadoff for the third time in the past four games -- all three of which have come against a left-handed starting pitcher -- and he set the table perfectly Tuesday. The 31-year-old should continue to have a regular role against lefties until Enrique Hernandez (hip) is able to return from the injured list.

LF/RF/DH BOS
Refsnyder started in center field, went 0-for-3, was hit by a pitch, and scored the winning run in Sunday's 2-0 win over the Mariners.
EDGE Analysis
Refsnyder made his second start in the last three games, both against left-handers, and was one of many supporting players in the win. The leading player in the win was Rafael Devers, who drilled a two-run home run in the top of the eighth inning after Refsnyder was hit by a pitch. In the bottom half of the frame, Refsnyder fully extended to rob Ty France of extra bases. Refsnyder is up with Boston while Enrique Hernandez is sidelined by a hip injury. He's expected to start in center or right field against lefties.

Refsnyder was recalled by the Red Sox on Thursday, Chris Cotillo of The Springfield Republican reports.
EDGE Analysis
Refsnyder was briefly with the team at the end of April, but he earned only six plate appearances prior to being demoted. He's likely to serve as outfield depth while Enrique Hernandez (hip) is sidelined. Refsnyder has maintained a .306 average with Triple-A Worcester this season, though he is a career .226 hitter at the big-league level.

Refsnyder was optioned to Triple-A Worcester on Friday, Chris Cotillo of The Springfield Republican reports.
EDGE Analysis
Refsnyder has been with the big-league club for the past 10 days and went 2-for-5 with two doubles, a walk and an RBI during his brief time in the majors. Jaylin Davis was promoted in a corresponding move for outfield depth.

The Red Sox selected Refsnyder's contract from Triple-A Worcester on Tuesday.
EDGE Analysis
Refsnyder will give Boston another utility option off the bench after Jonathan Arauz was placed on the COVID-19-related injured list in a corresponding move. Though he's primarily played center field at Triple-A this season, Refsnyder possesses ample experience at second base, where Arauz had made all three of his starts for Boston in 2022.
