Wilyer Abreu Cools After Hot Start
Boston Red Sox outfielder Wilyer Abreu went 0-for-4 with a strikeout in his team's 4-3 loss to the Seattle Mariners on Thursday. Aside from a 3-for-4 effort on Tuesday, Abreu has been scuffling at the plate a bit. After a blistering start to the season in which he hit .636 over four appearances in March, he's gone just 16-for-74 (.216). The Venezuela native is still making quality contact and drawing walks at the highest rate of his career (15.8%), so he should be able to break out of his rut soon. However, it's worth noting that he's notched only six free passes in 74 at-bats after recording five over his first 11. Abreu has always struggled hitting left-handed pitching, and that's continued in 2025 (1-for-9).
