Rob Refsnyder Injury: Falls ill

Red Sox manager Alex Cora said after Saturday's 4-3 loss to the Rangers that Refsnyder was unable to play due to an illness, Mac Cerullo of the Boston Herald reports.

Refsnyder has yet to make his 2025 debut, though it's unclear whether his absence for the first two games of the series was due to him being under the weather or simply not being needed. He had a productive 2024 campaign and projected to serve in the weak side of the platoon in right field with Wilyer Abreu, but Refsnyder will have to overcome his illness before taking the field.
