Astros placed RHP Bryan Abreu on the restricted list.

Abreu lost any semblance of fantasy value once closer Josh Hader returned from the injured list a couple weeks ago. The 29-year-old has struggled to a career-worst 6.39 ERA, 1.82 WHIP and 33/24 K/BB ratio across 25 1/3 innings this season. It’s unclear when he’ll return at this juncture given his rather nebulous placement on the restricted list with Astros manager Joe Espada telling reporters they’re giving Abreu some time off to take care of a personal matter.
