Rob Refsnyder Stats

Boston Red Sox outfielder Rob Refsnyder is back in the starting lineup on Wednesday when the club takes on the Miami Marlins and left-hander Braxton Garrett. It's no surprise to see the veteran get back into the lineup against a left-handed starter considering just how well he's performed as a platoon left fielder this season. Refsnyder is hitting .355 with a .958 OPS against southpaws this season, figures that tower over his work against righties. While he's homered just once in his 76 plate appearances against a lefty, Refsnyder has two stolen bases against southpaws and four overall on the season. Despite the lack of power, the 32-year-old represents a fine streaming and DFS option against lefties, especially out of the three-hole where he will be tonight against Garrett.

He's been especially useful against lefties, going 19-for-52 (.365) with a homer, three doubles and 13 RBI against them. Refsnyder can also play the infield and gives the Red Sox plenty of lineup versatility. He's a better real-life asset than a fantasy one, but he's been useful in AL-only leagues and DFS when facing a lefty.
