Red Sox's Rob Refsnyder: Will see time at first base

Red Sox manager Alex Cora said Monday that Refsnyder (toe) will play some first base upon his return from the 10-day injured list, Rob Bradford of WEEI.com reports.

Refsnyder has some experience at the position, although he hasn't played at that spot since joining the Red Sox in 2022. With the Red Sox outfield crowded at the moment, Refsnyder will be reintroduced to first base, where he could see occasional action versus lefties. Refsnyder is on a minor-league rehab assignment while working his way back from a fractured left pinky toe and could be activated before long.
