Refsnyder went 2-for-5 with a double and two RBI in Tuesday's 6-0 win over Colorado.
Refsnyder made a second consecutive start after being scratched from Sunday's starting lineup. The outfielder is 3-for-9 with a double and three RBI in the first two games of the series. With a right-hander (Cal Quantrill) scheduled to throw for the Rockies on Wednesday, Refsnyder could take a seat for the series finale.
Refsnyder (shoulder) will start in left field and bat second in Monday's game against the Rockies, Gabrielle Starr of the Boston Herald reports.
Refsnyder had been slated to start in Sunday's 9-6 loss to the Dodgers, but he was scratched from the lineup while he continued to deal with shoulder soreness, which stemmed from a defensive play the night before. The day off was apparently all Refsnyder needed for the issue to resolve itself, so he'll draw back into the lineup Monday while the Red Sox oppose another lefty in Austin Gomber.
