Astros' A.J. Reed sitting out on Friday
Houston Astros first baseman A.J. Reed is absent from the starting lineup Friday against the Texas Rangers.
With the Rangers starting lefty Martin Perez on Friday, Marwin Gonzalez -- and his .309 wOBA this season -- will start at first base in Reed's place. Since being called back up to the majors on Tuesday, Reed has yet to record a hit in seven plate appearances.
Since being demoted to Triple-A in mid-July, Reed hit .436 with a .558 wOBA and seven extra-base hits in 11 games. Our projections don't view him favorably over the rest of the year, forecasting a .175/.250/.275 slash with a .234 wOBA.
