Triston Casas, Wilyer Abreu Out Against A Lefty

Boston Red Sox first baseman Triston Casas and outfielder Wilyer Abreu will take a seat on Tuesday against the division-rival Toronto Blue Jays and left-hander Easton Lucas at Fenway Park. Romy Gonzalez will make the start at first base and bat seventh, while Rob Refsnyder is starting in right field and is batting cleanup for the BoSox. Casas has gotten off to a slow start this year, going 7-for-39 (.179) with a homer, two doubles, three RBI and 13 K's in 11 games played. Abreu has been excellent, slashing .424/.537/.788 with a 1.324 OPS, three homers, 12 RBI, 10 runs scored and a steal in 33 at-bats. Refsnyder, although he's never faced Lucas in his career, has been known as a lefty killer and will be the more attractive DFS sleeper for Tuesday's slate. In his career, the South Korean outfielder has hit .278 with 15 of his 24 home runs against lefties.

Wilyer Abreu Sitting For Game 1

Boston Red Sox outfielder Wilyer Abreu (undisclosed) will remain out of the starting lineup for Game 1 of their double-header against the St. Louis Cardinals on Sunday afternoon. Abreu was a late scratch on Saturday due to an undisclosed injury. Fantasy managers should continue to monitor his status leading up to Game 2 later this evening. In the opening game, Rob Refsnyder will cover right field and bat sixth. Abreu has enjoyed an impressive start to the campaign, holding a .500/.621/1.000 slash line with two doubles and three home runs through eight contests. He has held a 7:2 BB:K and swiped one bag. He has tallied at least one hit in all but two contests. When healthy, fantasy managers should view Abreu as a must-start option given his hot start. If he cannot return later on Sunday, he will look to enter the starting nine on Monday evening, when they face the Blue Jays.UPDATE: Abreu is reportedly fine and is likely to play Game 2 of a doubleheader on Sunday evening.

Wilyer Abreu Scratched Saturday

Boston Red Sox outfielder Wilyer Abreu was removed from the team's starting lineup on Saturday for undisclosed reasons. Abreu was originally in the lineup for Saturday's game against the Cardinals, but after a rain delay, he was replaced by Rob Refsnyder. It's a big hit to the Red Sox lineup since Abreu has started off the season scalding hot, hitting .500 (11-for-22) with two doubles, three home runs, eight RBI, and a .650 wOBA. The Red Sox have outfield depth, but Abreu has been so productive that losing him for any length of time would be a tough blow for the team. If you've been riding his early-season production, be sure to watch closely for more word from the team on the reason he was removed from the lineup.
