2025 Fantasy Outlook
Abreu's .825 OPS facing righties compared to a .532 mark versus lefties resulted in Abreu collecting 85 percent of his plate appearances against right-handers. Even with the smattering of action without the platoon edge, Abreu posted a 94th percentile hard hit rate and 86th percentile barrel rate. A 28.2 percent strikeout rate facing righties dampened Abreu's production. He fanned at a slightly lower clip against southpaws, but his quality of contact was weak. Abreu's league-leading 18 defensive runs saved in right field along with nine assists earned him a Gold Glove. His defensive prowess may help earn more playing time, but it's best to plan on reduced playing time. Abreu outpointed his xBA and xSLG, but playing in Fenway Park often skews the expected algorithms. There may be some regression, but Abreu's quality of contact is solid. He just needs to put the ball in play more. Read Past Outlooks
Homers in loss
Abreu went 1-for-4 with a three-run home run in Sunday's 8-4 loss to the White Sox.
ANALYSIS
Abreu's three-run blast off Sean Burke in the first inning was his first long ball since April 4. While he's cooled off a bit since his torrid start to the season, the outfielder has batted cleanup in four straight games. Overall, he's slashing .286/.405/.529 with four home runs, 15 RBI, 14 runs scored and two steals across 84 plate appearances.

Stat Review
How does Wilyer Abreu compare to other hitters?
This section compares his stats with all batting seasons from the previous three seasons (minimum 400 plate appearances)*. The bar represents the player's percentile rank. For example, if the bar is halfway across, then the player falls into the 50th percentile for that stat and it would be considered average.
* Exit Velocity and Barrels/PA % are benchmarked against 2019 data (min 400 PA) and Hard Hit Rate is benchmarked against last season's data (min 400 PA). See here for more exit velocity/barrels stats plus an explanation of current limitations with that data set.

Past Fantasy Outlooks
2024
2023
The lefty-hitting 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.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Expendable for Boston?
The Red Sox may be willing to part with Abreu this winter as they look to upgrade their starting rotation through the trade market, reports Christopher Smith of MassLive.com.
ANALYSIS
Abreu won a Gold Glove as a rookie in 2024 and also performed well offensively with 15 homers and a .781 OPS in 132 games. The 25-year-old wouldn't seem to be a logical trade candidate on the surface given his strong debut campaign, but Boston could be willing to move him with top prospect Roman Anthony on the cusp of the majors.
