Reddick (oblique) will take two rounds of batting practice Thursday, Joe Stiglich of CSN California reports. After making it through Wednesday's soft toss without incident, Reddick is ready for the next step in his progression. While he won't quite take a full batting practice session, he hopes to play in a game by the end of this weekend, which would give him a shot to be ready for Opening Day. Even if he isn't quite ready, he will likely only miss a few games.
