Mets Sign Jose Reyes

Mets Infielder Jose Reyes

The New York Mets announced today they are re-signing infielder Jose Reyes to a one-year deal for $2 million and can make $500,000 more with incentives. Reyes will be used in a utility role and play several positions including second base, shortstop and third base as well as possibly in the outfield. He played in 145 games for the Mets last year and hit ..246 with 15 homers and 58 RBI in 561 plate appearances. Reyes lead the team with 24 stolen bases and 561 plate appearances. He did well in the second half and had an .828 OPS. Hopefully Reyes can build off his strong second half and provide some speed and versatility off the bench. He will help serve as a exciting leadoff hitter and a mentor to SS Amed Rosario.
