Yankees' Albert Abreu: Notches third hold
Abreu picked up a hold Friday against the Reds, allowing one walk and striking out one batter in a scorless inning.
Abreu threw just 10 of 21 pitches for a strike, but he got through his frame yielding just one baserunner. The right-hander went through a rough stretch from May 9 to May 14 during which he gave up a run in each of his three appearances covering 3.2 total innings, but he's since had back-to-back scoreless outings. Abreu has picked up a hold in each of his past two games after collecting just one hold through his first 15 contests this season.

Yankees' Albert Abreu: Loses control against Rangers
Abreu pitched one inning against Texas on Sunday, allowing six runs on two hits and four walks while striking out one batter.
Abreu had pitched well this season prior to Sunday, allowing just two earned runs -- both against Toronto on April 21 -- over 12.1 innings. His ERA took a huge hit Sunday, however, jumping from 1.46 to 5.40. The damage was largely due to his inability to find the zone, as he threw only 20 of 41 pitches for a strike and issued four free passes. In fact, the final three batters he faced all reached via walk and eventually came around to score. Abreu struggled with his control last season, posting a 12.8 percent walk rate across 38.2 frames, and he's already issued 10 free passes over his first 13.1 innings in 2023.

Yankees' Albert Abreu: Wins Opening Day spot
Manager Aaron Boone confirmed Sunday that Abreu will be included in the Yankees' Opening Day bullpen, Pete Caldera of The Bergen Record reports.
Abreu turned in uneven results during Grapefruit League play, yielding six runs and striking out just four over 9.1 innings, but he issued just one walk and held opposing batters to a .222 average. Ultimately, that level of performance along with the fact that he doesn't have minor-league options remaining were enough for Abreu to secure his spot on the roster. He'll likely be ticketed for low-leverage work out of the bullpen.

Yankees' Albert Abreu: Back in The Bronx
The Yankees claimed Abreu off waivers from the Royals on Tuesday, Robert Murray of FanSided.com reports.
The right-hander will join the Yankees for the second time in his career after he had previously been acquired by the organization in a November 2016 deal that sent Brian McCann to Houston. Abreu reached the majors with the Yankees for the first time in 2020 and made 28 appearances out of the big-league bullpen in 2021 before he was dealt to the Rangers prior to Opening Day. Between stops with Texas and Kansas City this season, Abreu logged a 3.46 ERA and 12:16 K:BB across 13 big-league innings. He'll fill a low-leverage role out of New York's bullpen once he's formally added to the active roster.

He has a 3.46 ERA, 2.00 WHIP and a 12:16 K:BB in 13 innings in the majors this season. Abreu recorded four walks and four outs in a single appearance April 29, and his poor control is what likely led to him losing his 40-man roster spot.
