Bradley went 2-for-4 with a triple and four RBI in Wednesday's 7-1 win over Cincinnati.
EDGE Analysis
Bradley singled home a run during Boston's four-run fourth inning then cleared the sacks with a bases-loaded triple in the eighth. That gave the Red Sox a comfortable lead that not even the team's wobbly bullpen could squander. There was a well-founded fear that Bradley's bat would not provide enough oomph to sustain his elite defense in the lineup every day. That fear materialized early, when he hit .156 with five RBI during 21 games in April. However, Bradley owns a .293 average (24-for-82) with 12 extra-base hits and 15 RBI over the last 26 contests.

Bradley went 1-for-1 with a three-run home run in Friday's 7-3 win over the Mariners.
EDGE Analysis
Bradley, who was not in the starting lineup, entered the game in the top of seventh inning as a defensive replacement for Christian Arroyo in right field. His turn to bat came up in the bottom half of the eighth with Boston nursing a one-run lead, and the light-hitting outfielder drilled his first home run of the season into the Monster seats. While Bradley's bat has improved since a cool .156 start during the month of April, he's still prone to slumps and is batting just .200 for the season.

EDGE Analysis
Bradley's off day is his second in three games. He's made a very poor case for everyday at-bays this season, hitting just .193/.261/.275. Christian Arroyo will replace him in right field.

EDGE Analysis
Even with right-hander Luis Garcia on the mound for the Astros, Bradley will get a breather after he went 0-for-7 with two strikeouts over the last two games. Franchy Cordero will shift to right field while Bobby Dalbec starts at first base.

Bradley went 2-for-3 with a double in Thursday's 8-0 loss to the Angels.
EDGE Analysis
Bradley was Boston's best hitter against Shohei Ohtani and extended his hitting streak to three games. He went 5-for-7 with three doubles and an RBI over the three-game series, raising his average to .200. However, the team as a whole has underwhelmed (.229, 26th) and hasn't been able to compensate for Bradley's inconsistency at the dish.
