3 years agoChicago White Sox first baseman Jose Abreu went 2-for-3 with a double, walk, and two RBI in the White Sox 3-0 win over the Kansas City Royals in the first game of a doubleheader Tuesday. Abreu's performance in game one was a welcome sight to fantasy managers who have him rostered. Abreu is off to a brutal start in 2022, slashing just .211/.297/.328 with only three home runs and 14 RBI over 128 at-bats and 34 games. Abreu was out of the lineup for the nightcap. Perhaps Tuesday afternoon's performance will get his bat going. Abreu is coming off a 37-homer, 117-RBI season, which followed his 2020 American League MVP campaign. Despite the very mediocre start to the season, fantasy managers should remain patient with Abreu given his track record and current underlying metrics which do suggest positive regression forthcoming.--Nick Ritrivi - RotoBaller
