Briefly

Should the Red Sox bring back free agent Rob Refsnyder?
"After the 2024 season Rob Refsnyder considered retiring. But he didn't, explaining: "Really it was just the conversation, last year was my last guaranteed deal with here," Refsnyder said. "...I didn't really know the future. If no one has interest then yeah, I'd go on and do the next thing. I'm happy I'm here and this is my last year here that I guaranteed so we'll see what happens.""
"Over his four years with the Red Sox the righty has compiled a .276/.364/.440 line with 27 home runs, 48 doubles, and 100 walks (225 strikeouts) over 309 games, largely as a platoon bat against southpaws. He averaged 0.9 bWAR per season as a part-time player. Per 162 game he was worth about 1.9 bWAR. He's doing some good work off the bench. That does come with his limitation: he really is a platoon bat. Against right-handed pitching he's hit a pedestrian .22"
Rob Refsnyder considered retiring after 2024 but returned and is now a free agent weighing future options. He was drafted by the Yankees in 2012 and spent time with multiple teams before joining Boston in 2022. Over four seasons with the Red Sox he produced a .276/.364/.440 line with 27 homers, 48 doubles, and 100 walks across 309 games, mainly as a platoon bat against left-handed pitching. He averaged 0.9 bWAR per season as a part-time player and about 1.9 bWAR per 162 games. His clear limitation is poor performance versus right-handed pitching.
