The Astros’ position players are officially in their third day of workouts at the Spring Training facility in West Palm Beach, and Josh Reddick is making the most of it. Last year was arguably the worst season he has endured, and he’s determined to rectify that by going back to the basics and hitting off a tee.
“Everybody talks about not liking to hit on a tee,” Reddick said. “Nobody does, but it’s the best tool I could have.”
Reddick developed a habit in 2018 of only covering the inside portion of the plate, resulting in pulling the ball 45% of the time versus 36% in 2017.
