Abreu was scratched from the lineup for Saturday's game against the Athletics due to swelling in his shin/calf.
Interim manager Chad Tracy said that the team had been trying to get the 27-year-old a day off during its 16-game stretch, per Gabrielle Starr of the Boston Herald, so Abreu will remain on the bench Saturday while he tends to his injury. In the meantime, Eli White will move over to right field, and Jarren Duran will enter the lineup to start in left.
