Mets are signing infielder Pablo Reyes According to a report by MLB.com’s Anthony DiComo, a minor league agreement was reached. Reyes Giancarlo Stanton Returned from the injured list earlier this week. He has been assigned to Syracuse.
Reyes, 31, is a veteran of seven Major League Baseball seasons at this point. This is Reyes’ second straight season to be part of the Metropolitan Organization. He started his 2024 campaign with the Red Sox, but was traded to New York in May last year. He briefly joined the roster as an option for depth and appeared as a pinch runner, where he recorded a score, which was then assigned as a mission and attributed to a minor.
Last year, Reyes appeared in the Yankees, Red Sox, Winemakers and Pirates for years outside of his short term in Queens. He made his MLB debut in Pittsburgh in 2018 and scored an impressive .293/.349/.483 in 18 games in his first cup of coffee, but was unable to replicate those results in 2019. He missed the entire 2020 season due to a PED timeout and left the organization shortly thereafter. Reyes signed a minor league deal with the winemakers before the 2021 season, but averaged below average in 56 games for the club in two seasons, reaching .258/.330/.344 (84 WRC+) during Milwaukee.
Reyes joined the Red Sox ahead of the 2023 season and enjoyed his strongest season with Boston’s Grand Slam season to date. In 64 games, as a platoon partner David Hamilton In midfield, Reyes hit the respectable .287/.339/.377 with a WRC+ of 93, while reducing the cut by 11.4% with a career-deepening of 11.4%. Unfortunately, he has been growing bigger due to the last two seasons as he hits only .187/.237/.220 (26 WRC+), while 98 sets between the Red Sox and Yankees have been 29.6% in 98 sets in the past two seasons.
Although Reyes is hardly a good choice, he is a versatile defender with a very high speed. That’s enough to make him an interesting bench for a large number of MLB clubs, and it’s possible to imagine at least one or two injuries that could make him a viable consideration for the Mets. Nick Madrigal and Mark Vientos With the identity of young people, they are already on the shelf in New York Luisangel Acuna and Ronnie Mauricio Currently on the MLB bench. If the Mets think any young player can benefit from Triple-A’s regular AT bats, or other injuries occur, Reyes will compete with other non-members, e.g. Donovan Walton and David Villar Be the next man.
