Abreu went 2-for-3 with a two-run homer and a double in Tuesday's 16-3 loss to the Red Sox.
EDGE Analysis
Abreu ripped a two-run home run off Nick Pivetta in the bottom of the fourth inning before later doubling off the starter in the sixth frame. The homer was his fifth of the year and second in four games. Over his last seven games, Abreu has notched five extra-base hits while batting .346 and driving in seven runs in those contests. The hot stretch has raised his batting average to a still uninspiring .225 over 151 at-bats in 2022, but the 35-year-old may be set to take off as the calendar closes in on June.

Abreu went 1-for-5 with a three-run home run in Saturday's loss to the Yankees.
EDGE Analysis
Abreu took Nestor Cortes deep in the top of the third inning, driving in Tim Anderson and Andrew Vaughn in the process. The long ball was his fourth of the year and first since May 4. The first baseman has struggled in the power department this year, but he has now notched three extra-base hits over his past four games while batting .267 with five RBI in those contests. Overall, Abreu has produced a disappointing .207/.296/.343 slash line this year over 140 at-bats.

Abreu went 1-for-2 with a double and two RBI on Sunday against the Red Sox.
EDGE Analysis
Abreu swatted a two-RBI double in the third inning to put the White Sox up 3-0. He has at least one hit in nine of his last 10 games, also racking up six RBI and six runs scored in that span. While hits have fallen in, Abreu has only a .146 ISO through 109 plate appearances to begin the season -- a significant drop from his .219 mark in 2021.

EDGE Analysis
Abreu kicked off the scoring in the game with a solo shot to left field in the first inning, and he scored the final run of the contest on an AJ Pollock single in the sixth.

Abreu went 1-for-4 with a home run and two RBI in Saturday's 9-2 loss to the Twins.
EDGE Analysis
He accounted for all of Chicago's offense with a solo shot in the sixth inning and an RBI groundout in the eighth. Abreu hasn't quite locked in his swing yet, slashing .208/.283/.396 through 13 games with two homers and six RBI, but his .242 BABIP is well below his normal level and figures to rise as the weather warms up.
