2024 Fantasy Outlook
Abreu passed up a few relievers in Houston's high-leverage hierarchy last season. Serving as the Astros' primary setup man in the eighth inning, Abreu established career highs across multiple categories in 2023, including games played (72), innings (72.0), saves (five) and holds (24). The 26-year-old posted elite ratios and was one of five relievers last season to record 100-plus strikeouts, hitting that mark right on the nose after throwing far more sliders (58.7% usage). The right-hander's upper-90s fastball was also more effective (.165 BA, 37.3% whiff), supplementing his slider as a secondary strikeout pitch. Abreu was looking like Houston's future closer, and he could still end up in the ninth, though he's been pushed back down the ladder for the time being with the addition of Josh Hader.

Not available Monday
Astros manager Joe Espada announced that Abreu will not be available for Monday's game against the Blue Jays, Chandler Rome of The Athletic reports.
ANALYSIS
After serving a two-game suspension to start the season, Abreu pitched Saturday and Sunday against the Yankees. He was roughed up in his 2024 debut Saturday, allowing three runs on two hits and two walks in one inning. With Josh Hader also unavailable Monday, the Astros will look to Ryan Pressly, Rafael Montero and Seth Martinez as their main options out of the bullpen.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Weighing appeal
According to Bryan Hoch of MLB.com, Abreu and the Astros are discussing whether or not to appeal his two-game suspension ahead of Game 6 of the ALCS against the Rangers on Sunday.
ANALYSIS
He received the two-game ban for throwing at Adolis Garcia in Game 5 of the ALCS, and the right-hander has until the start of Game 6 to decide whether or not to appeal. Abreu has been a key piece out of the bullpen for Houston with 11 strikeouts and just one run allowed across 6.1 frames in the playoffs.

Past Fantasy Outlooks
2023
2021
2020
Abreu graduated from middle relief to high leverage as an important part of the Astros' late-inning bridge to closer Ryan Pressly. The fourth-year pro tallied a career-high 60.1 innings across 55 appearances, of which 17 were multi-inning stints. Walks (3.9 BB/9) were still an issue, but Abreu's 13.1 K/9 was 7th-best among qualified relievers thanks to a devastating slider that produced 63 of his 88 strikeouts. Abreu's fastball wasn't as effective, but he added a tick-and-a-half of velocity on average (97.2 mph) and approached triple-digits during the World Series. He also generated plenty of whiffs (98th percentile) while limiting hard contact with elite barrel (95th%) and hard hit (89th) percentages. Despite the breakout season, Abreu is unlikely to see many save chances in 2023 with Rafael Montero and Hector Neris likely ahead of him in the hierarchy. He's still worth a look in deeper formats for strikeouts and ratio support.
