Reddick went 2-for-4 with an RBI in Sunday's game against the Orioles.
EDGE Analysis
Reddick tacked on an insurance run in the sixth inning on an RBI single to center field. He continues to see the ball well at the dish through 59 games this season, and he's posted a .312/.351/.459 slash line with seven home runs and 23 RBI.

Reddick is out of the lineup for Thursday's game against the Mariners, Chandler Rome of the Houston Chronicle reports.
EDGE Analysis
The Mariners will deploy a southpaw (Tommy Milone) as their primary pitcher in the series finale, so the lefty-hitting Reddick will head to the bench as manager AJ Hinch makes room for an extra right-handed bat. Derek Fisher will shift over from left field to cover Reddick's usual spot in right, but it's first baseman Tyler White who will essentially replace Reddick in the lineup.

Reddick went 2-for-4 with a two-run home run and a second run scored in Saturday's 5-1 win over the A's.
EDGE Analysis
His fourth-inning blast off Brett Anderson gave Justin Verlander all the offense he would need on the night. Reddick has now homered in consecutive games, but he has only six long balls on the year to go with his .314/.361/.454 slash line -- numbers which are nearly identical to his 2017 performance.

Reddick went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in Friday's 3-2 victory over the A's.
EDGE Analysis
His seventh-inning long ball off Mike Fiers was his second of May and fifth of the season. That puts him on pace to finish with only 14 homers, but what Reddick's been lacking in power he's made up for with an improved contact rate, resulting in a big rebound in batting average. Notably, Reddick was batting fifth in this one after seeing some time atop the order initially after George Springer (hamstring) hit the injured list.

Reddick isn't in the starting lineup for Friday's game against the Athletics, Chandler Rome of the Houston Chronicle reports.
EDGE Analysis
Reddick has struggled at the plate over his last three contests (0-for-12), so he'll head to the bench to clear his head. Michael Brantley will move over to left field and hit third with Reddick riding the pine.

Reddick is not starting Tuesday against lefty Jon Lester and the Cubs, Brian McTaggart of MLB.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Reddick no longer appears to be in a platoon role, as he started against seven straight lefties prior to Tuesday's contest. Derek Fisher gets the call in right field in his absence.

Reddick went 1-for-4 with a home run and two RBI in Saturday's 7-3 win over the Red Sox.
EDGE Analysis
The homer was his fourth of the year and first since April 24, but Reddick has still been productive lately, hitting .275 (14-for-51) in May with six RBI and eight runs in 14 games. The veteran outfielder now boasts a .324/.372/.451 slash line on the season.

Reddick sits Monday against lefty Matthew Boyd and the Tigers, Chandler Rome of the Houston Chronicle reports.
EDGE Analysis
Reddick has started against just three of the 11 lefties the Astros have faced this season. As usual, George Springer slides over to right field, with Jake Marisnick starting in center.

Reddick batted second in the order and went 1-for-5 with an RBI in Saturday's 11-4 win over the Rangers.
EDGE Analysis
Reddick was moved up in the batting order to the second spot, replacing Jose Altuve who was placed on the injured list Saturday. It's not clear if Reddick will be the full-time No. 2 hitter while Altuve is on the IL, but if so, it represents an excellent opportunity hitting between George Springer and Alex Bregman. Reddick has hit regularly this season -- his 40 hits rank third on the roster -- but has just 10 RBI while batting primarily in the bottom half of the order.
