The Yankees recalled Abreu from Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre on Wednesday.

EDGE Analysis

New York placed infielder Rougned Odor (knee) on the 10-day injured list in a corresponding move. Abreu is still being developed as a starting pitcher, but with no existing opening in New York's rotation, the 25-year-old will be available as a long-relief option while he's up with the big club.
