310 To Left

The Art of MLB Player Development with Rob Refsnyder

30 Apr 2025

Description

Rob Refsnyder joins the show for a wide-ranging conversation on what it takes to carve out a lasting role in today’s game. He talks about adjusting to baseball’s demanding hours as a morning person, the shock of being traded from the Yankees to the Blue Jays, and how player development has shifted from the minors to the major leagues. Rob opens up about the influence of veteran teammates, the swing he tried to model, and how he uses analytics to fine-tune his mechanics. He also shares insight into what makes Alex Bregman so effective and the culture shift he’s seeing in the Red Sox clubhouse. Earlier in the episode, Alex Speier and Will Middlebrooks reflect on their own journeys through professional baseball. Will talks about the turning point in his career and how getting out of the lower levels of the minors changed everything, while Alex remembers covering him during those early years. They also discuss the rapid trajectories of young players and why the Red Sox offense has found a groove lately. For an inside look at development, identity, and the details that make good players great, listen to 310 To Left with Alex Speier & Will Middlebrooks ft. Rob Refsnyder.
