Josh Reddick (OF, HOU) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues

OWNED IN: 31% of leagues

ANALYSIS: Josh Reddick has had something of a bizarre season thus far. He blasted six home runs in his first 18 games, then went over two months before hitting another. After hitting .281 and .314 in the last two seasons, Reddick's average sat at .221 a month ago. He's brought it up nearly 50 points since then, hitting a robust .349/.375/.458 with a pair of home runs and four stolen bases during that span.

The counting stats are likely to continue falling into the "modest" bucket, but Reddick looks well on his way to another season of being a plus in batting average. Given how well he's swinging the bat right now, he's worth owning in all but the shallowest leagues.
