Padres Sign Pablo Reyes To Minor League Deal
"Reyes, 32, has appeared in seven big league seasons. He has mostly served as a part-time utility player and as a source of hope and inspiration. Overall, he has appeared in 259 games and stepped to the plate 606 times over those seven campaigns. He has produced a .245/.305/.342 batting line and stolen 14 bases. The righty swinger has been better against lefties, with a .272/.325/.418 line when holding the platoon advantage."
"Defensively, Reyes can fill multiple positions. He has at least 150 innings at the three infield positions to the left of first base, as well as each of the outfield corners. He's also had briefer stints at first base and in center field, plus five mop-up innings on the mound. One year ago, he signed a minor league deal with the Yankees and eventually cracked the Opening Day roster with that club."
Pablo Reyes agreed to a minor league contract with the San Diego Padres and is expected to receive an invite to major league spring training. Reyes is a 32-year-old right-handed utility player with seven MLB seasons, 259 games, a .245/.305/.342 batting line, and 14 stolen bases, showing better production versus left-handed pitchers. He offers defensive versatility across multiple infield positions left of first base and both corner outfield spots, with occasional first base and center field experience. He spent last season between the Yankees and Triple-A Syracuse, where he hit .289/.385/.484, and will compete for a bench role; he would be out of options if added to the big-league roster.
