2025 Fantasy Outlook
It was not surprising to see Refsnyder hit lefties as he had raked on the short side of platoons hitting .321 against southpaws from 2021 to 2023 in nearly 300 plate appearances. What was surprising was witnessing Refsnyder hit as many homers in 307 plate appearances in 2024 than he had over the entirety of 2018 to 2023. The part-time outfielder had 1 homer in 145 plate appearances against lefties in 2023 but hit eight in the exact same number of plate appearances against lefties in 2024 by lofting the ball against them at a career-best rate. He had the exact opposite luck against righties where he did hit .267, but his groundball to flyball rate was nearly double what it was against lefties. Career years at 33 years old are rarely done, but even less frequently repeated. Boston liked what they saw enough to exercise his 2025 club option as he makes the perfect partner for Wilyer Abreu in an outfield platoon. Ideally, Refsnyder remains in a short-side platoon, but that also severely limits his fantasy viability in 2025. In short, 2024 was a fun surprise but it isn't happening again. Read Past Outlooks
