On February 8th, I wrote about Michel Abreu being at Spring Training this year and his previous stats. That article can be found here. His stats show that he could be a threat, but as a reader brought up in the comment section, there is question about his age.
In today's game, he hit a two-run homerun in the ninth inning. Although that was against University of Michigan, it still counts and lets see what happens as he takes AB's against actual teams. I would not be surprised to see him getting a lot of AB as Spring continues. He could be a dark horse for one of the bench spots (or an eventual trade token).
Although this statement is redundant, Abreu is one of the players that I will be keeping an eye on during Spring Training.
Here are some stat lines from today's game:
Abreu: 2-3, 1 R, 1 2B, 1 HR, 2 RBI's
Wright: 1-2, 1 R, 1 HR, 2 RBI's
Reyes: 1-2, 1 R
Church: 0-1, SB
Fmart: 1-2
