Abreu was optioned to the Yankees' alternate training site Saturday.

EDGE Analysis

Abreu hasn't seen much action out of the Yankees' bullpen this season as he struggled during two appearances. He'll presumably get more consistent work at alternate camp and could return to the majors in a low-leverage capacity later in the season. Gleyber Torres (hamstring) was reinstated from the 10-day injured list in a corresponding move.

Abreu was recalled from the alternate training site after Game 1 of Sunday's doubleheader against the Mets, Bryan Hoch of MLB.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Abreu was optioned to the alternate site earlier in the week but will rejoin the Yankees for Sunday's nightcap. The 24-year-old has made one appearance in the majors and allowed two runs on three hits with two strikeouts and two walks over 1.1 innings.

Abreu was optioned to the alternate training site after Game 2 of Wednesday's doubleheader against the Braves.

EDGE Analysis

The right-hander served as the 29th man for the doubleheader but didn't pitch in either contest. Abreu has made one appearance this season and gave up two runs on three hits with a 2:2 K:BB over 1.1 innings.

The Yankees recalled Abreu from their taxi squad serve as their 29th man for Wednesday's doubleheader with the Braves.

EDGE Analysis

Abreu's lone appearance with the big club came back on Aug. 8, when he was also serving as the 29th man for a twin bill with the Rays. He'll give the Yankees some length out of the bullpen, but don't expect him to be used Wednesday outside of a mop-up situation.

Abreu was appointed as the Yankees' 29th man for Saturday's doubleheader.

EDGE Analysis

Abreu was on the taxi squad for the weekend series, and he'll step in to fill a bullpen role for the twin bill Saturday after Nick Tropeano was designated for assignment. If Abreu makes a relief appearance, it will be his major-league debut. While he won't be on the active roster past Saturday for the time being, the right-hander could join the bullpen on a more regular basis at some point this year.

Abreu is traveling with the Yankees as part of their taxi squad for the team's upcoming series against Tampa Bay, Bryan Hoch of MLB.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Abreu has been working out at the team's alternate training site. He is one of two relievers selected for the taxi squad, which increased from three to five players Thursday. The 24-year-old has yet to pitch above the Triple-A level, but he stands a reasonable chance of making his big-league debut at some point this season.

Abreu has been optioned to the Yankees' alternate training site.

EDGE Analysis

As expected, Abreu will not break camp with the big-league club, though he should continue to develop as part of the team's satellite squad. The right-hander could be called over to the big-league club at some point this season if the need for a bullpen arm arises.

Abreu has been included on the Yankees' summer camp roster.

EDGE Analysis

Though Abreu is on the team's 40-man roster, he was not expected to break camp with the club under a normal-season scenario. The right-hander is unlikely to log significant playing time this season given the fact that he has yet to pitch above the Double-A level.

Abreu could potentially be part of the Yankees' expanded roster should a 2020 season take place, Greg Johnson of The Trentonian reports.

EDGE Analysis

While it is unlikely that Abreu would make the big-league roster to begin the campaign, he could be placed on the taxi squad, allowing the Yankees to call him up if the need for a bullpen arm emerges. Abreu has the arsenal to start, but command and control issues have led to speculation that he may be best suited to a relief role. That plan was briefly tested last season when the right-hander was transitioned to the bullpen for his final three appearances.

Abreu averaged "about 98 mph" on his fastball in Grapefruit League play, Yankees vice president of baseball operations Tim Naehring stated in an interview with Meredith Marakovits of the YES Network on Wednesday.

EDGE Analysis

In addition to the impressive fastball velocity, Abreu displayed a plus curveball and changeup, accoring to Naehring. The 24-year-old has posted solid strikeout numbers in the minors but has often struggled with his command as evidenced by a 91:53 K:BB over 96.2 innings at the Double-A level last season. Abreu will return to Trenton to begin the 2020 campaign after allowing three earned runs and posting a 4:2 K:BB over five Grapefruit League innings this spring.
