Smacks solo homer in Toronto
Abreu went 1-for-3 with a solo home run and a stolen base during the Red Sox's 5-3 loss to the Blue Jays on Tuesday.
Analisi
Abreu gave the Red Sox an early 2-1 lead by taking Dylan Cease deep to right-center field for a 370-foot solo homer. It was Abreu's sixth home run over his last 11 outings and 21st of the season, leaving him one long ball shy from matching his career-high mark that he set last year. He has a .794 OPS with eight steals, 64 RBI and 47 extra-base hits across 504 plate appearances this year.

Returns Sunday
Abreu started at designated hitter and went 0-for-2 with a walk and an RBI in Sunday's 4-3 loss to the Athletics.
Analisi
Abreu, who was held out of Saturday's lineup with lower-leg soreness, was back in action Sunday but did not play the field. His fifth-inning sacrifice fly gave Boston a 3-2 lead before the A's came back late. It was the sixth consecutive game with an RBI for Abreu, who was delivered 10 runs during that stretch. The two-time Gold Glove winning outfielder was replaced in the right field by Eli White the last two games.

Making return to lineup Sunday
Abreu (calf/shin) will start at designated hitter and bat third in Sunday's game against the Athletics, Chris Henrique of BostonSportsJournal.com reports.
Analisi
Abreu was held out of the lineup Saturday for the first time since June 21, getting scratched shortly before the first pitch due to lower-leg swelling and soreness. He's made enough improvement to return to action for the series finale, but the two-time Gold Glove Award winner will be used strictly as a hitter Sunday. Eli White will draw the start in Abreu's usual spot in right field.

Feeling better after treatment
Interim manager Chad Tracy said that Abreu (calf) is doing better after receiving treatment Saturday and he is "hopeful" Abreu will play Sunday, Gabrielle Starr of the Boston Herald reports.
Analisi
Abreu was scratched from Saturday's lineup against the Athletics with some swelling in his shin/calf area, but it sounds like he has a chance to play in Sunday's series finale. Boston is in the middle of a 16-game stretch with no off days. The 27-year-old is in the midst of a five-game hitting streak and five straight games with at least one RBI as well.

Scratched Saturday
Abreu was scratched from the lineup for Saturday's game against the Athletics due to swelling in his shin/calf.
Analisi
Interim manager Chad Tracy said that the team had been trying to get the 27-year-old a day off during its 16-game stretch, per Gabrielle Starr of the Boston Herald, so Abreu will remain on the bench Saturday while he tends to his injury. In the meantime, Eli White will move over to right field, and Jarren Duran will enter the lineup to start in left.

Collects three RBI
Abreu went 2-for-2 with a walk, a double and three RBI during the Red Sox's 13-1 win over the Athletics on Friday.
Analisi
Abreu capped off the Red Sox's five-run second inning with an RBI double to right field that was just a few feet short of clearing the wall for a three-run homer, and he added to Boston's lead with an RBI single in the seventh. Abreu has recorded at least one RBI over his last five outings and logged two hits in four of those games.

Powering up in August
Abreu went 2-for-3 with a walk, a stolen base, a solo home run and two additional runs scored in Wednesday's 4-0 win over the White Sox.
Analisi
If it seems like Abreu homers every game, that's because he's gone deep in three consecutive contests. He's 6-for-11 with four home runs (all solo) in those three games. Abreu is up to 20 home runs, the second straight year he's hit that mark.
