What It Means:

Jake Smolinski will replace him in right field and bat sixth in the series finale on Thursday. With southpaw Madison Bumgarner taking the mound for San Francisco, Reddick will take a seat and reflect on his 1-for-9 performance at the plate since returning from a fractured thumb.

Reddick was crushing it before his stint on the disabled list and currently ranks 108th in the big leagues with a 0.69 nERD. His .310 batting average and .383 on-base percentage both represent career-highs across 175 appearances at the plate this season. We currently project him to continue to regress slightly, expecting Reddick to hit .276/.343/.427 over the remainder of the year.
