11/20/24 | Baltimore Orioles Trade Idea Nets Underrated Boston Red Sox Slugger. The Baltimore Orioles are set to lose a ton of offensive production this offseason and need to look to either free agency or the trade market to fill the open role.

The Red Sox might be enticed to swap the expiring contract for two potentially pro-ready hurlers. The cost might even be less, considering Refsnyder's deal is only for $2 million in 2025.

Refsnyder had already carved out a nice niche for himself as a matchup problem for left-handed pitchers, but this season proved he can be more than that for the Red Sox in a pinch.

All things considered, Brayan Bello's last full inning was relatively uneventful — an Adley Rutschman ground out, an Eloy Jiménez strikeout, and a Colton Cowser ground out — but he walked back to the dugout after the fifth inning pumping his fists and pointing to the sky. On a night when Bello gave the Sox 5? innings, that one was the least complicated. Bello's had success against the Orioles this season (2-1 with a 2.76 ERA in three prior starts).

8/22/24 | Red Sox Leader Opens Up About Potential MLB Retirement. Most of the Red Sox roster is made up of players who are still cutting their teeth in MLB and/or haven't yet reached their prime. One of those players is Rob Refsnyder, who's amid his 10th season in The Show. A baseball journeyman, Refsnyder never played more than 51 games in an MLB season before joining the Red Sox in 2022. The outfielder eclipsed that threshold in each of the last three seasons including the 2024 campaign, which is shaping up to be the best season of his career.

8/21/24 | Alex Cora doesn't buy Red Sox OF's retirement rumors, jokes it's his 'last dance'. Red Sox outfielder Rob Refsnyder surprised many when he told The Boston Globe over the weekend that he was “undecided” on playing next season. The Red Sox hold a $2 million team option over Refsnyder — a no-brainer to pick up considering his production — and the 33-year-old has carved out a nice role in Boston as a productive bench piece and team leader. Despite that, he was clear that retirement is on the table. Manager Alex Cora, however, is fully expecting Refsnyder to be on the Red Sox' roster in 2025, noting that the story has become something of a running gag among team members on their current road trip.

8/18/24 | Red Sox fan favorite outfielder Rob Refsnyder is considering hanging it up after this season. Boston Red Sox outfielder Rob Refsnyder is considering hanging it up or returning for his 10th MLB season, per Pete Abraham. Refsnyder has been with the Sox for three seasons, and during that time he had a batting average of .282, 14 homers, and 81 RBI. This season is the third of the three, and he is averaging .296 with half of his home runs coming from this season. Refsnyder will be 34 after this season, and that is a decent age to retire in the MLB, especially for an outfielder, who have to move great distances very quickly.
