The Houston Astros released Jose Abreu.
Fantasy Impact
Abreu has gotten off to a rough start this season, hitting .124 at the plate with just seven RBI across 113 at-bats. He was sent down to Triple-A earlier in the year before being called back up. The veteran will hit waivers.
Jose Abreu went 1-for-4 with a home run and an RBI in the Astros' 7-1 victory over the Angels.
Fantasy Impact
This performance, highlighted by his solo home run, offers a slight glimmer of hope for fantasy managers who have been enduring his prolonged slump. Despite the homer, Abreu's season batting average remains a concerning .122, with only two home runs and six RBI over 31 games. His woeful .166 wOBA and .141 BABIP suggest significant struggles at the plate, making him a risky fantasy play. Owners should remain cautious, as consistent production seems unlikely without a dramatic turnaround in his hitting metrics.
Jose Abreu is in the starting lineup for the Astros Tuesday.
Fantasy Impact
Abreu will start at first base and hit eighth against the Cardinals. He is hitting .115, with one home run, and five RBI this season.
Jose Abreu is out of the Astros’ starting lineup Monday.
Fantasy Impact
Abreu will head to the bench after an 0-for-2 day at the plate Sunday. Jon Singleton will start at first base and bat seventh against the Cardinals.
Jose Abreu went 1-for-3 with a home run and an RBI in the Astros' 5-2 victory over the Twins.
Fantasy Impact
His solo shot marked his first home run of the season, bringing a slight glimmer of hope to his struggling campaign. Despite this momentary highlight, Abreu's season has been alarmingly poor, with a batting average lingering at .119 and an overall contribution that's been underwhelming. His .154 wOBA and .150 BABIP suggest a significant struggle with making effective contact, and his high strikeout rate of 0.267 only compounds the concern. Fantasy managers should remain cautious, as one game does not indicate a turnaround, especially given the broader context of his performance this year.
