16 Josh Reddick, RF

Athletics outfielder Josh Reddick "felt great" after taking more than 20 swings in batting practice Friday, MLB.com reports.

"No issues," Reddick told MLB.com. "I don't feel anything. I was happy with the results. Biggest thing for me was if I could pull the ball. It's one thing I really wanted to test out because I wasn't able to do it before. It felt great. Didn't feel anything and still driving the ball that way."

Reddick is unsure how long of a rehab assignment he'll need.

"We don't have a number yet," Reddick told MLB.com. "Talked with [manager Bob Melvin] today. He said he wants to make sure I get as comfortable as possible, whether it takes five at-bats or 15 or 20 at-bats."

Reddick has hit .152/.266/.250 with a home run in 92 at-bats this season.

Athletics outfielder Josh Reddick (wrist) remains on track to take batting practice Friday in Houston. He will do so again Saturday, and if all goes well, then the team will decide where to send him for a rehab assignment, according to MLB.com.

Reddick could be reinstated from the disabled list next week. Reddick, who was hitting .152 before going on the disabled list, believes his hitting woes could be strongly connected to his wrist discomfort.

Athletics outfielder Josh Reddick will join his teammates on Friday in Houston, MLB.com reports Monday. Reddick will take batting practice at that time. 

If all goes well Reddick, who will avoid the disabled list with his wrist injury, will be sent out on an injury rehab assignment in the minors. 

Athletics manager Bob Melvin said Monday during an interview with MLB Network Radio the team has "hopefully" ruled out surgery for outfielder Josh Reddick, who is on the disabled list with a wrist injury. Reddick is not with the team in Texas, but he could join them in Houston (May 24-26).

Athletics outfielder Josh Reddick said Saturday that he's been taking dry swings with a bat, the San Francisco Chronicle reports.

Reddick said his wrist has had no discomfort, though he's not actually hitting anything yet. He's hopeful to avoid surgery.

"No issues," he said. "It's wait-and-see right now. We don't have a set plan."
