M’s sign Rob Refsnyder

Interesting that this relegates Robles to the Bench unless they DH RR.

Hasn't done much anyways but stay on the IL or get suspended.

It’s an OK play he could provide a right handed platoon option for DH with Rielly Wrightfield with Kenzo or vice versa and occasionally give nails a break versus a lefty, pinch hitter, etc.


I’m just hoping it isn’t one of those you’re too late type of decisions

Ok, here is some goofy assed trivia:

“Refsnyder, who will turn 35 on Opening Day next year, was born in Seoul, South Korea, which will make him the fourth Korean-born player in Mariners history -- along with Shin-Soo Choo (2005-06), Cha-Seung Baek (2007) and Dae-ho Lee (2016).”

I don’t even know where to go with this.

[D-train]

It's fine but going into his age 35 season there might not be anything left.

I copied and pasted the bottom line and forgot to change his age to 35 yo. Uncanny similarities.

His mother has to be Korean. He definitely looks Asian.

Apparently they haven't learned from their long line of overpriced bums.

I wouldn't take this bum over either Robles or Raley, what's Dipollander thinking? Nothing like usual?

Right-handed bench bat that kills lefties. I don't think it's any more complicated than that.

Let's hope so, although this is a right-handed bat that's going from Fenway Park to T-Mobile Park. If there's a reason to be optimistic, his OPS against lefties the last two seasons has been well over .900, so maybe there won't be that much of a dropoff.

It's dumpster-diving, but as a depth piece it's not a bad get.

[Bil522]

Career Backup, 10 years in the bigs with only 1550 plate appearances. He had a decent season last year playing in Fenway but he has a career .568 OPS at T-Mobile.

Well that is because we don't have a lot of lefties
