Abreu out up to three weeks

Baseball Betting Lines

02/27/2007 - Tampa, FL (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - New York Yankees right fielder Bobby Abreu is expected to be sidelined the next 2-to-3 weeks due to a strained right oblique muscle.

Abreu was hurt during batting practice Monday at Legends Field, but he'll probably be ready for Opening Day on April 2 at home versus Tampa Bay.

Acquired from Philadelphia last season Abreu had 107 RBI in 2006, including 42 with the Yankees. He surpassed the 100 RBI mark for the fifth time in his career and led all major leaguers with 124 walks. Incredibly, he has reached the 100-walk plateau in eight consecutive seasons, becoming only the third player in big league history to do so.

Abreu, who will turn 33 on March 11, finished the season hitting .297 with 15 homers and 30 steals.

Because of Abreu's injury, Melky Cabrera will get most of the playing time in right field during spring training.
