## Resource

Randy Arozarena’s return to the Mariners roster after a hamstring injury is a major boost—his power and speed make the lineup instantly stronger. But with his activation came the demotion of Connor Joe, leaving Rob Refsnyder as the odd man out. Fans are baffled and frustrated, as Refsnyder’s stats this season are dismal: negative WAR, low batting average, just three homers and nine RBIs. His recent performance against the Red Sox and against lefties only deepens the mystery—why keep him when his actual production doesn’t justify his spot? It seems the Mariners are clinging to past potential, not present performance. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
