Rob Refsnyder Will Start At Third Today For The Yankees

Yankees prospect Rob Refsnyder is one of the bigger puzzles in the Yankees organization. For years we thought he would be the 2nd baseman of the future but recent moves and actions by the Bombers lead me to believe the team has lost faith in Refsnyder.

Today Refsnyder will get an opportunity to show he should be the back up third baseman behind Chase Headley. I can't help but think this is his only real chance to make the big league roster with the Yankees. Refsnyder is now viewed as a back up infielder.
