Reddick went 2-for-3 with a solo home run and two runs to help the Astros to a 4-1 win over the Padres on Sunday.
EDGE Analysis
Reddick kept on rolling with the multi-hit effort, getting his third home run of the season with the sixth-inning blast off Tyson Ross. He's red-hot right now, with nine hits in his last 19 at-bats since starting the season 0-for-7 to bring his slash line for the year up to .346/.452/.692 and he should continue to see plenty of opportunities to keep producing runs hitting in Houston's explosive lineup.

Reddick went 3-for-4 with a run scored in Wednesday's 3-2 win over Baltimore.
EDGE Analysis
Reddick, fresh off a two-home run game Tuesday, hit cleanup with Carlos Correa getting a day off. The outfielder, who went to Twitter to to beg for a hit after going hitless over his first eight at-bats, has a three-game hitting streak, which included hits in five consecutive plate appearances. Thus fare, he's started five of seven games, which puts him on a 115-game trajectory.

Reddick went 2-for-4 with two home runs and six RBI in Houston's 10-6 victory over the Orioles on Tuesday.
EDGE Analysis
After starting the season 0-for-7, Reddick has three hits in his last six at-bats, including Tuesday's explosion that saw him drive in six of Houston's 10 runs with his pair of homers. While he may not be the first name that comes to mind when thinking about the Astros' juggernaut offense, Reddick was a solid contributor for the World Series champs last year with a .314/.363/.484 line in 477 at-bats and he showed he's still packing some pop with Tuesday's multi-homer effort.

Reddick went 1-for-2 with two walks and a run scored in Monday's 6-1 win over the Orioles.
EDGE Analysis
Reddick, who had been out of the lineup the previous two games, snapped an eight at-bat hitless streak when he singled in the seventh inning. Manager A.J. Hinch appears to have one established, everyday outfielder -- George Springer. Other than Springer, we expect to see a rotation of Reddick, Derek Fisher and Jake Marisnick at the corners. Eventually, when first baseman Yulieski Gurriel (hand) is activated off the disabled list, Marwin Gonzalez will join the regular outfield mix.

Reddick is out of the lineup Sunday against the Rangers, Brian McTaggart of MLB.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Reddick is sitting out for the second straight day with the Rangers bringing back-to-back lefties to the hill. Right-hander Chris Tillman is slated to start for the Orioles on Monday when the Rangers open a three-game set with Baltimore, so expect Reddick to check back into the corner outfield for that contest, likely resulting in Derek Fisher hitting the bench.

Reddick is not a fixture in the Astros' starting nine for Saturday's game against Texas, Stefan Stevenson of the Fort Worth Star-Telegram reports.
EDGE Analysis
Reddick will get the day off with left-hander Matt Moore taking the hill, while Marwin Gonzalez earns a start in left field. During the first two games of the regular season, Reddick has gone 0-for-7 with one walk and a pair of strikeouts.

Reddick went 3-for-3, including a home run and a triple off Washington left-hander Gio Gonzalez, in Wednesday's win over the Nationals.
EDGE Analysis
Reddick was considered a platoon outfielder when he joined the Astros due to his career .218 batting average against left-handers, but hit .315 against southpaws in 2017. That resurgence has continued into spring training. Reddick's gone 6-for-11 with all four of his extra-base hits against lefties. He'll be the primary right fielder in 2018 and should approach 500 plate appearances.

Reddick went 1-for-3 in Wednesday's game against the Marlins and is 5-for-16 through six spring games.
EDGE Analysis
Reddick started in right field and later played center while batting second, safely ensconced between George Springer and Jose Altuve. He had his most plate appearances in 2017 out of the two-hole, which proved to be a sweet spot for Reddick, who had a career-high .847 OPS. When he wasn't hitting second, Reddick was hitting third, between Altuve and Carlos Correa. He'll get pitches to hit and an opportunity to prove last year's above-average .339 BABIP wasn't merely a fluke, but the product of an optimal spot in the lineup.

Reddick (back) is in the lineup for Game 1 of the ALDS against Boston on Thursday, Brian McTaggart of MLB.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Reddick returns to the field for the first time since Sept. 24, and will be hitting out of the sixth spot while manning right field for Game 1 against Chris Sale and the Red Sox. The outfielder has been dealing with back pain ever since exiting a contest Sept. 22, but appears to be near full health as Houston gears up for its playoff run.

Reddick (back) claims that he will be ready to go for Game 1 of the ALDS against the Red Sox on Thursday, Brian McTaggart of MLB.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Reddick missed the last eight of the last nine games of the regular season while dealing with a little bit of back pain, but said that he will return to the field for Thursday's contest. There has been no official word from the club as of yet, so he should still be considered day-to-day, although it looks promising that he will be back in the starting nine.
