22 Josh Reddick RF

Reddick is the projected starter in right field, Brian McTaggart of MLB.com reports.

Reddick appears to have held onto the job that's been his the past three years in Houston, but his hold will be subject to change. Prospect Kyle Tucker could wrest the job from Reddick, if the veteran fails to hit consistently, and playing time between the two will be fluid throughout the season. The 33-year-old Reddick, who had just one hit in 20 spring at-bats, will not have the luxury of slumps like that once the regular season kicks off.

Reddick could make his spring debut as early as this weekend, Brian McTaggart of MLB.com reports.

Reddick is all healed up from offseason shoulder surgery. He's expected to open the season as the starting right fielder, but prospect Kyle Tucker could eventually push him aside.

President of baseball operations Jeff Luhnow said Wednesday that Reddick (shoulder) will enter spring training 100 percent healthy and face no restrictions, Brian McTaggart of MLB.com reports.

Reddick underwent arthroscopic surgery on the AC joint in his left shoulder in late November, but it doesn't appear the procedure will impact his availability for 2020. The 32-year-old is coming off a 2019 campaign in which he posted a .275/.319/.409 slash line with 14 home runs, 56 RBI and five stolen bases in 141 games.

Reddick underwent an arthroscopic procedure on the AC joint in his left shoulder Friday, Chandler Rome of the Houston Chronicle reports.

Reddick didn't spend any time on the injured list in 2019, so it's not clear if the issue bugged him during the season. He's expected to be ready to go for the start of spring training, though his status will be worth checking on as that time approaches.

Prior to Sunday's showing, Reddick's season high for hits in a game was just three, so this performance came as quite a surprise. The 32-year-old is battling for playing time with prospect Kyle Tucker in right field, and this performance may earn him extra starts in the final stretch of the season.
