Let's address the elephant in the room for a moment. Shall we?
Abreu is slashing .197/.272/.311 (.583 OPS). His OPS+ is 79.
We all have a warm spot in our hearts for the guy. He was here through the darkest of the dark times and stuck it out with us all the way until we emerged out of the other side. I know we've had this conversation before about Abreu potentially having his better days behind him. He always has responded by getting it together and going on a tear. I 100% think he can get it together. However, he is 35 now and each time he does this it becomes a bit more concerning.
At what point do you truly begin to worry? June? July? If this persists into June. I think there needs to be a very real conversation about dropping him in the order. Or even giving some of the starts at first base to Vaughn. Am I overreacting?
