White Sox Activate Jose Abreu

By Steve Adams | September 10, 2018 at 12:39pm CDT

The White Sox announced Monday that they’ve activated first baseman Jose Abreu from the 10-day disabled list. He’d been out since mid-August after being rushed to the hospital due to lower abdominal pain and eventually undergoing an emergency testicular torsion surgery.

Abreu, 33, missed about three weeks of action as a result of the surgery and could ultimately fall shy of a fifth consecutive 25-homer, 100-RBI season to open his big league career. The Cuban-born slugger struggled through a disappointing first half but was on absolute fire in the second half prior to his surgery, hitting at a .330/.394/.652 clip through 127 plate appearances between the All-Star Game and his most recent game played (Aug. 20).

Despite his standing as a productive veteran slugger on a team that has rebuilding for the past two-plus years, Abreu hasn’t been rumored to be much of a trade candidate this year. He’ll be a free agent following the 2019 season, as things currently stand, though the Sox have in the past suggested that there’d be interest in keeping their clubhouse leader around beyond that 2019 campaign. Abreu is playing the 2018 season on a $13MM salary and will be eligible for one final arbitration raise this winter before he’d be scheduled to hit the open market.

    Abreu is 31 unless you have discovered some new information. Just acquired him in a dynasty league trade and you had me worried I had missed something.

      You are correct but then again with him coming out of Cuba, Steve might actually be correct.

        or then again, with Cuba involved, neither one could be correct. 🙂

        on a more sobering note on Abreu,……ouch.!

    Definitely a possibility. Hopeful for 5/6 years of good production regardless of his birthdate. And this is coming from a Cubs fan.
