Former Houston Astros outfielder Josh Reddick has expressed support for Albert Pujols to take on a managerial position. Reddick's endorsement comes as Pujols currently serves as the manager of the Dominican Republic national team at the 2026 World Baseball Classic.
Pujols led Team Dominican Republic to a victory over Team Israel in Pool D play on March 9, 2026, at loanDepot park in Miami, Florida. The Hall of Fame-caliber player has transitioned into a coaching role following his retirement from Major League Baseball.
Reddick, who played alongside Pujols during his career, believes the former slugger has the leadership qualities necessary for a managerial job in professional baseball.
