Refsnyder came up to hit against Jojo Romero off the bench, and he launched his second homer of the season to give Seattle the 3-2 lead and ultimately the victory. He still is hitting just .121/.211/.303 on the season, but Refsnyder has been too good against southpaws to be remotely concerned about his roster spot. He’s not going to get enough playing time against right-handers to garner roster consideration in fantasy leagues.

Dad strength. Refsnyder’s first hit as a Seattle Mariner comes shortly after returning off paternity leave, and it was a leadoff blast off MacKenzie Gore. The 35-year-old is still hitting just .045/.180/.182, but his history of destroying left-handed pitching makes it hard to be too concerned after just a three-week sample.

Refsnyder will hit at the top of the lineup in his first start as a Mariner with left-hander Joey Cantillo on the bump for the Guardians. It’s intriguing if only because Refsnyder has handled southpaws so well in his career, and he’ll get a chance to be driven in by some very good baseball players. Brendan Donovan will move down to sixth with Refsnyder at the top, and Dom Canzone is out of the lineup.

It’s probably a day-to-day injury for Refsnyder, but we’ll see. He’s slated to start against lefties for Seattle, typically in right field or at DH.

Refsnyder’s homer off Jeffrey Springs was somehow hit 463 feet. His previous high this year was 410 feet, and his previous career high was 436, which he set in 2015 while facing the Red Sox and playing for the Yankees and equaled in 2022 while playing for the Red Sox and facing the Yankees. Refsnyder is batting .281/.361/.500 as one of the game’s best lefty mashers, but he’ll probably be right back on the bench Wednesday against a righty.

With left-hander Cade Povich on the mound for the Orioles, the Red Sox are going with a right-handed-heavy lineup, which includes Refsnyder at DH and batting fifth. Jhostynxon Garcia is also starting in left field and batting ninth, while Nate Eaton will play centerfield and bat sixth.

The Red Sox are not slated to face a left-handed starting pitcher until the final game of the series on Thursday against Cade Povich, so it would make sense for Refsnyder, who is used almost exclusively against lefties, to be activated for that game. Sadly, that could mean the end of Jhostynxon Garcia’s time on the active roster for now, since the rookie has not been playing against right-handed pitching in his brief stint with the team.

It’s unclear when Refsnyder got hurt. He hadn’t started since Aug. 4 because the Red Sox have been facing only right-handers of late. His last appearance came as a pinch-hitter on Wednesday.

The bad news is that Refsnyder isn’t able to play, but the good news is thar Cora suggested his absence is precautionary and he won’t need a stint on the injured list. Refsnyder should be able to return to the Boston lineup in the coming days if there are no setbacks.

Beyond him being banged up, the Red Sox haven’t elaborated on what’s wrong with Refsnyder. It sounded like putting him on the IL today was a consideration, but Romy Gonzalez was the choice to go instead. With Refsnyder sitting, Wilyer Abreu is starting against a lefty for the second time this season.
