A's avoid arb with deals for Reddick, Rodriguez

The A's avoided arbitration by agreeing to terms with right-handed pitcher Fernando Rodriguez and outfielder Josh Reddick on one-year contracts for the 2016 season, the club announced on Friday.

Reddick compiled his best numbers in 2015 since '12, his first season with the A's, batting .272 with 20 home runs and 77 RBIs in 149 games. He had a career-high .333 on-base percentage, and his batting average was his best with Oakland.
