Reed homered for the third time in five games during Monday's game against Triple-A Las Vegas.
He's hitting .244/.319/.561 through 10 games, boasting three homers and 11 RBI with a 5:11 BB:K. Thanks to the emergence of Tyler White and the return of Evan Gattis, the Astros don't have a pressing need for Reed at the present time, but Gattis' expected return to occasional catching duties may open up flexibility for at-bats at first base or DH for Reed if he forces his way onto the Astros' 25-man roster in the coming weeks.
