Abreu was recalled from Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre on Saturday, Kristie Ackert of the New York Daily News reports.

EDGE Analysis

Abreu made four relief appearances for the Yankees earlier in the year and posted a 2.08 ERA and 0.69 WHIP in 8.2 innings. He should serve mainly as a low-leverage reliever going forward after Zack Britton (hamstring) and Wandy Peralta (back) were placed on the injured list as part of a corresponding move.
