The Los Angeles Angels release DH/OF Bobby Abreu
The Los Angeles Angels have released 38-year old lefty swinging DH/OF Bobby Abreu. Abreu played in 8 games for the Angels this year and he was 5 for 24 (.208 avg, .593 OPS) with 1 run scored, 0 homers and 5 RBIs. He played in 456 games in his four years with the Angels and he was 443 of 1,662 (.267 avg, .776 OPS) with 239 runs scored, 43 homers, 246 RBIs and 75 stolen bases. The Angels aren’t going to miss Abreu too much as they were having problems finding him ABs. He has also started to slide production wise. I have a feeling that some team is going to pick him up in 2012.
