Abreu was recalled from Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre on Thursday.

EDGE Analysis

The 26-year-old last pitched in the majors Sept. 18, surrendering five runs in 0.2 innings against Cleveland. Prior to that outing, he had four consecutive scoreless appearances in low-leverage situations for the Yankees. He'll take the roster spot of Luke Voit (knee), who was placed on the 10-day injured list Thursday.
