Refsnyder shows Yanks — and trading partners — what he can do

Rob Refsnyder’s non-audition audition continued Friday night.

Observers continue to keep an eye on the second baseman’s future, but both Refsnyder and Joe Girardi refused to look beyond Friday’s 4-3 win over Seattle, even as he started for a third straight time and with the July 31 non-waiver trade deadline fast approaching.

“Is it a two-week tryout for [Refsnyder]?” Girardi said. “No. I’m not going to say that.”

Maybe not, but the 24-year-old got another opportunity to show the Yankees — and other teams — what he’s capable of on the major league level.

He went 0-for-2 and was fine in the field, although he did make an awkward backhand flip to get a force out in the second.
