Josh Reddick coming to Portland

Maybe he's not THE big name arriving in Portland on Monday, but it is still big news that Josh Reddick is coming to Hadlock Field.

Reddick, 21, one of the Boston Red Sox top outfield prospects, has been promoted from advanced Class A Lancaster to fill the vacancy created when Bubba Bell went on the disabled list (see previous blog).

Reddick was batting .343 in Lancaster with 17 home runs.

Hadlock Field will be packed Monday to watch David Ortiz. But keep an eye out for Reddick.
