Abreu went 1-for-4 with a single and two strikeouts in the White Sox's loss to the Mets on Monday.
The single was one of two hits allowed by Matt Harvey on Monday, while Abreu was working out of the two-hole in the White Sox's lineup for the third time this season. Sitting with a disappointing .248/.311/.391 line through 225 plate appearances, Abreu's slow start through the first two months of the season has been overshadowed by some of the league's other poor performances to date. Interestingly enough, his struggles are not tied to an increase in swings-and-misses, but instead to a surge in weak contact. Since the start of May, only 10 of Abreu's 28 hits have gone for extra bases.
