Wilyer Abreu will make his spring training debut on Saturday after being sidelined for multiple weeks due to a gastrointestinal virus.

In a potential trade the team should be looking to make this season, the Red Sox would move outfielder Wilyer Abreu and Josh Winckowski to the Milwaukee Brewers in return for southpaw Jared Koeing. Koeing had a breakout season in 2024, recording a 2.47 ERA in 62 innings and striking out 63 hitters.

Abreu finally got a clean bill of health from the team's medical staff and he was able to play in Boston's Saturday afternoon game against the Atlanta Braves at JetBlue Park in Fort Myers. He played right field for 5 innings in the 7-3 loss and went 0 for 2 at the plate.
