Player Outlook
The lefty-hitting Wilyer Abreu was traded to Boston at the 2022 trade deadline in the deal that sent Christian Vazquez to Houston. He doesn't run as much as he used to, attempting just 13 steals in 114 games across Triple-A and the majors, but Abreu has a cannon of an arm and logged an impressive 49.1 HardHit% rate in 53 batted-ball events, per Statcast. He made solid swing decisions in his brief cup of coffee, but Abreu's Contact% was a hair below 70 percent, so he will likely be better in OBP leagues than AVG leagues. Abreu's defensive versatility and patient approach make him more valuable to Boston than to fantasy managers, but he's a very strong outfield streamer when home games and/or games against right-handed pitchers are on the docket. Abreu figured to get a chance on the strong side of an outfield platoon with Rob Refsnyder to start the year, but the acquisition of Tyler O'Neill notably diminishes his 2024 outlook.

  • Red Sox's Wilyer Abreu: Sent to 10-day IL

    Rotowire
    The Red Sox placed Abreu on the 10-day injured list Tuesday with a right ankle sprain, Mac Cerullo of the Boston Herald reports. Per Alex Speier of The Boston Globe, Abreu is hoping to return in the minimum 10 days after he sprained his ankle in the Red Sox's dugout during Sunday's game against the Tigers. Bobby Dalbec drew the start in Abreu's usual spot in right field Tuesday, but one of Rob Refsnyder and Tyler O'Neill (knee) should serve as the primary option at the position once O'Neill returns from the IL later this week.

  • Red Sox's Wilyer Abreu: IL stint imminent

    Rotowire
    Manager Alex Cora said Tuesday that Abreu (ankle) will be placed on the injured list, Alex Speier of The Boston Globe reports. Abreu twisted his right ankle in the dugout during Sunday's game and the injury seems to be severe enough to warrant a significant absence, although exactly how long Abreu will be out remains to be seen. Tyler O'Neill (knee) could return Wednesday to take Abreu's place on the roster and in the outfield.

  • Red Sox's Wilyer Abreu: Nursing ankle issue

    Rotowire
    Red Sox manager Alex Cora said Abreu twisted his right ankle in the dugout during Sunday's loss to the Tigers and is receiving treatment, Mac Cerullo of the Boston Herald reports. The 24-year-old went 1-for-4 with a run scored before he suffered the injury and was replaced by a pinch hitter during the ninth inning. Abreu will have Monday's team off day to aid in his recovery before the start of a two-game series versus Atlanta on Tuesday.

  • Red Sox's Wilyer Abreu: Sitting out versus lefty

    Rotowire
    Abreu is out of the lineup for Monday's game in Baltimore. The Orioles have southpaw Cole Irvin on the mound Monday, so the left-handed hitting Abreu will take a seat. Rob Refsnyder will be in right field for the Red Sox and also occupy the second spot in the batting order.

  • Red Sox's Wilyer Abreu: Heats up

    Rotowire
    Abreu went 3-for-4 with a triple and a run scored in Sunday's 2-1 win over the Brewers. Abreu, who scored on a sacrifice fly following his fourth-inning triple, is in a productive stretch. The outfielder is 10-for-25 with five extra-base hits, a stolen base, six RBI and four runs scored over the last seven contests. He's thriving against right-handed pitching this season, posting a .926 OPS against them.

  • Red Sox's Wilyer Abreu: Homers in Wednesday's win

    Rotowire
    Abreu went 2-for-4 with a two-run home run and a walk in Wednesday's 8-5 win over the Rays. Abreu delivered the final scoring play for the Red Sox in this contest when he took Rays reliever Kevin Kelly deep in the sixth inning. Over the last four games, Abreu has gone 6-for-15 (.400) with five RBI and three extra-base hits. The 24-year-old outfielder continues to play well in a strong-side platoon role, slashing .275/.357/.486 with five homers, 20 RBI, 22 runs scored and seven stolen bases over 157 plate appearances this season.

  • Red Sox's Wilyer Abreu: Goes deep in loss

    Rotowire
    Abreu went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in Wednesday's 4-3 loss to the Rays. Abreu gave Boston a 2-1 lead with his solo blast in the fourth inning. The homer was the fourth for Abreu, who has settled into the strong-side platoon role after a shaky start to the season. He's currently slashing .305/.391/.547 against right-handers.

  • Red Sox's Wilyer Abreu: Not starting against Nats

    Rotowire
    Abreu is out of the starting lineup for Friday's game against the Nationals. The rookie outfielder will look on from the dugout as Boston takes on left-hander Patrick Corbin. Abreu is slashing .276/.368/.439 with 13 RBI and five stolen bases on the year. Tyler O'Neill will move from his normal left field spot to fill in for Abreu in right.

  • Red Sox's Wilyer Abreu: Sitting against southpaw

    Rotowire
    Abreu is out of the lineup for Thursday's game against the Giants, Gabrielle Starr of the Boston Herald reports. With southpaw Kyle Harrison on the bump for the Giants, the lefty-hitting Abreu will retreat to the bench for the series finale. The Red Sox will have Tyler O'Neill move from his usual spot in left field to replace Abreu in right.

  • Red Sox's Wilyer Abreu: Swipes fifth bag

    Rotowire
    Abreu went 1-for-3 with a walk, a run and a stolen base in Wednesday's 6-2 win against the Giants. Abreu stole a base in three straight games between April 15 and 18, but he hadn't notched any thefts over his subsequent 10 contests coming into Wednesday. The 24-year-old outfielder continues to cement his place in the starting lineup, as he's slashing .316/.395/.519 with two homers, 12 RBI, 14 runs and five thefts on the campaign. Abreu began the campaign as Boston's fourth outfielder, but has since emerged as the team's everyday right fielder and cleanup hitter.

  • Red Sox's Wilyer Abreu: Another multi-hit game

    Rotowire
    Abreu went 3-for-4 with a walk, a double, a triple, an RBI and a run scored in Tuesday's 4-0 win over San Francisco. Abreu is swinging a productive bat; this was his fifth multi-hit game over the last 10 contests, during which he's 18-for-41 with nine extra-base hits, 10 RBI and eight runs scored. Much of that production has come as the cleanup batter, a spot that had been filled by Triston Casas prior to the oblique injury that landed him on the 60-day injured list.

  • Red Sox's Wilyer Abreu: Sitting out Friday

    Rotowire
    Abreu is not in the lineup for Friday's game versus the Cubs. Southpaw Shota Imanaga is toeing the rubber for the Cubs, so the left-handed hitting Abreu is receiving a day off. Tyler O'Neill will cover right field and Rob Refsnyder will get a start in left for the Red Sox.

  • Red Sox's Wilyer Abreu: Another three-hit day

    Rotowire
    Abreu went 3-for-5 with a double, two RBI and a run scored during Sunday's 6-1 victory over the Pirates Abreu's three-hit day represented his second such effort in three days, as he posted multiple RBI for the first time this season. Abreu entered the series with PIttsburgh hitting just .184 but reached base 10 times, going 7-for-12 with three walks, a homer, two doubles, four RBI and three runs scored during the weekend set to raise his average to .280 with a .390 on-base percentage.

  • Red Sox's Wilyer Abreu: Steals base in win

    Rotowire
    Abreu started in right field and went 0-for-2 with a walk and stolen base in Wednesday's 2-0 win over Cleveland. Abreu swiped a bag for the third consecutive game and fourth consecutive start; he ranks second on the team with four stolen bases. He has a history of high-volume attempted steals in the minors, so this flurry is not out of character. Red Sox manager Alex Cora indicated earlier in the week that Abreu will be in the lineup against right-handers for the time being, which puts him on the fantasy radar. The outfielder has reached base safely over the last six appearances (five starts), adding five runs scored to his four steals during that stretch.

  • Red Sox's Wilyer Abreu: Will play every day versus righties

    Rotowire
    Red Sox manager Alex Cora said Monday that he plans to begin playing Abreu every day against right-handers, Rob Bradford of WEEI.com reports. Abreu is making just his seventh start of the season Monday, but he has been in the lineup for four of the last five contests versus righties and it sounds like he'll be a regular against them moving forward. Ceddanne Rafaela is getting a start at shortstop Monday and it would appear he'll see more action there moving forward. Abreu has just a .618 OPS this season but put up an .862 OPS in 28 games in 2023.

  • Red Sox's Wilyer Abreu: Receiving third start

    Rotowire
    Abreu will start in right field and bat ninth in Wednesday's contest in Oakland, Chris Cotillo of The Springfield Republican reports. It will be just the third start so far for Abreu, who seems to be a clear fourth in the Red Sox's outfield pecking order. He had batted fifth in his first start and seventh in his second but will occupy the bottom of the batting order Wednesday. Tyler O'Neill is getting a day off.

  • Red Sox's Wilyer Abreu: Makes debut

    Rotowire
    Abreu started in right field and went 0-for-4 with three strikeouts in Saturday's 4-3 extra-inning loss to the Mariners. Abreu, who opened spring training as the likely starter in right field, sat out the first two games of the regular season. The addition of Ceddanne Rafaela to the Opening Day roster forced a realignment in the outfield that did not benefit Abreu. Additionally, a rough spring in which he batted .127 and struck out 26 times in 77 plate appearances didn't help his cause.

  • Red Sox's Wilyer Abreu: Not included in projected lineup

    Rotowire
    Abreu was not included in the projected Opening Day starting lineup by Ian Browne of MLB.com. Ceddanne Rafaela has made the team and seems to have played himself into a regular role, while Abreu has struggled to a .588 OPS and 24 strikeouts in 24 games this spring. Tyler O'Neill has not played right field in the majors since 2019, but the Red Sox could move him there at Abreu's expense, or perhaps Jarren Duran could move to right. While the 24-year-old Abreu showed promise in a small sample in the majors last season, the whiffs might push him to a bench role or back to the minors to begin 2024.

  • Red Sox's Wilyer Abreu: Piling up strikeouts

    Rotowire
    Abreu went 0-for-4 with two strikeouts in Thursday's spring game against Philadelphia. Abreu entered camp as the favorite to become the primary starter in right field, but the outfielder is 4-for-36 with 16 strikeouts in Grapefruit League action. That might not be an issue for an established major leaguer, but Abreu has limited MLB experience (28 games). Additionally, Rob Refsnyder's fractured toe (four-to-six weeks) and Ceddanne Rafaela's strong spring could be reshaping the outfield.

  • Red Sox's Wilyer Abreu: Goes deep

    Rotowire
    Abreu went 1-for-3 with a solo home run in Wednesday's spring game against the Twins. Abreu's first spring homer was the highlight of the day for Boston, which lost 7-1. It's been a slow start to the Grapefruit League for Abreu, who was hitless over his first 10 at-bats and 1-for-15 before a triple Tuesday followed by Wednesday's long ball. Despite the results, Red Sox manager Alex Cora told Julian McWilliams of The Boston Globe that Abreu is putting together good at-bats and swinging at the right pitches.
