I'd like to take another look at bringing in Jose Reyes

[BSN07]

I see Reyes as more of a cubic zirconia. He looks legit on the outside/surface. But if you look a little deeper, his flaws start to become apparent.

Wow he was able to get to the dish 600 times last year. Impressive. What did he do with those PA's? A whopping .321 OBP... .... No thanks.

 

The Red Sox already have what Reyes can provide. He doesn't add a lot to this team besides salary.

 

He was recovering from a leg injury. I think he's probably closer to his 2006-2008 levels.

Jed Lowrie 2011 for shortstop.

Reyes early numbers last year got dinged by a thyroid condition, which was a freak reaction to shellfish. Only in 2009 when he had hamstring issues was he hurt. So, I'd expect a rebound this year since he's healthy. The Mets would only move him for real talent and if he were put on the market, there would be a bidding war. He definitely wouldn't be moved for expensive contracts. I think it's likely he resigns with the Mets. They have $50 million in salary coming off the books this year, mostly in dead money. They need him to generate attendance.
