WTM’s PLAYER PROFILE
Reyes signed at age 17. He’s a lefty who throws 88-91 and mixes in a slider, curve and change.

2018
DSL:  5-2-0, 4.14 ERA, 1.33 WHIP, 54.1 IP, 4.8 BB/9, 8.3 K/9

Pitching mostly as a starter, Reyes had a solid first season.  He had some issues with walks, but his K rate was decent and he held opponents to a .216 average.  Left-handed batters had just a 193/292/211 line against him.

2019
R+:  4-1-2, 5.28 ERA, 1.35 WHIP, 46.0 IP, 2.9 BB/9, 7.8 K/9

Reyes pitched out of the Bristol bullpen, except for one spot start.  He pitched a little better than his ERA, with much improved control.  He had a reverse platoon split.

2020
DNP

2021
R:  1-2-1, 6.55 ERA, 1.82 WHIP, 22.0 IP, 6.1 BB/9, 11.0 K/9

Reyes took a step backward.  Pitching in relief in the FCL, his control was worse than ever.  He missed a lot  more bats, but opponents put up an .858 OPS against him.  The damage mostly came in a very bad July, but the control was a problem throughout.

Reyes will be 23 when the 2022 season starts and needs to win a spot at Bradenton.
