Josh Reddick went 1-for-4 with three RBI in Tuesday's win over the Rangers.
Reddick delivered an RBI groundout in the second inning before coming through with a bases-loaded single in the fifth. Reddick also stole his first base of the year in that five-run fifth inning. The numbers still aren't great, but Reddick has shown some signs of life at the plate recently.

Reddick's triple off Yu Darvish was the only extra-base hit for either team in the game. There was talk a couple of weeks ago that he might be sent to the minors, but he's 15-for-35 since April 18, raising his average from .098 to .250.

Josh Reddick had an RBI triple Friday against the Astros.
Reddick is quietely hitting .416 (10-for-24) over his last eight games, which is nice to see after he began the season in a massive funk. Still, we'll likely see him sit in favor of Craig Gentry on Saturday with left-hander Dallas Keuchel on the mound for Houston.

Josh Reddick went 2-for-4 with a home run and two runs batted in as the Athletics defeated the Reds 8-4 on Tuesday.
Reddick hit a solo shot in the fifth inning off of Jeff Francis, his second of the spring. The slugger only hit 12 homers last season due to wrist problems, but Reddick hopes off-season surgery allows him to bounce back and hit 32 homers like he did in 2012.

Josh Reddick was removed from Friday's Cactus League contest against the Giants for what is being called "contact lens complications."
Well, that's a first. Of course if it were a regular season game, Reddick would've likely found a way to remain in the game. The 27-year-old is having a nice spring, slashing .333/.359/.500 with a homer and 10 RBI and looks like a nice bounce-back candidate in 2014.

Josh Reddick said on MLB Network Radio on Sirius XM on Monday that his surgically-repaired right wrist is now 100 percent.
Reddick underwent arthroscopic surgery on his wrist at the end of October, but he completed his rehab 10 days ago and will enter spring training with no restrictions. It's fair to wonder if he'll need some time before his power resurfaces, but he makes for a solid buy-low in the late rounds of mixed league fantasy drafts this spring.
