Career[edit]

Pittsburgh Pirates[edit]

Reyes signed with the Pittsburgh Pirates as an international free agent on May 31, 2012.[1] He spent the 2012 season with the DSL Pirates, hitting .284/.368/.399/.767 with 1 home run and 23 RBI. He repeated with the DSL Pirates in 2013, hitting .304/.376/.429/.806 with 3 home runs and 28 RBI. He spent the 2014 season with the Bristol Pirates, hitting .272/.367/.367/.733 with 2 home runs and 16 RBI. Reyes spent the 2015 season with the West Virginia Power, hitting .268/.345/.438/.783 with 12 home runs and 60 RBI. He spent the 2016 season with the Bradenton Marauders, hitting .265/.341/.386/.727 with 5 home runs and 45 RBI. Reyes hit .274/.356/.410/.765 with 10 home runs and 50 RBI for the Altoona Curve in 2017. Reyers split the 2018 minor league season between Altoona and the Indianapolis Indians, hitting a combined .284/.337/.421/.759 with 8 home runs and 41 RBI.[2][3]

On September 1, 2018, the Pirates selected Reyes' contract and called him up to the majors leagues for the first time.[4] In 13 games with the Pirates, he hit .293/.349/.483/.832 with 3 home runs and 7 RBI.[5]

Reyes made the Pirates Opening Day roster in 2019,[6] and hit .203/.274/.322/.596 with 2 home runs and 17 RBI over 71 games. Reyes was designated for assignment on January 9, 2020, following the signing of Guillermo Heredia. He was suspended by MLB for the first 80 games of the 2020 season due to the use of a Performance Enhancing Drug (PED). He became a free agent on November 2, 2020.

Milwaukee Brewers[edit]

On January 7, 2021, Reyes signed a minor league contract with the Milwaukee Brewers organization.[7] On April 26, Reyes was selected to the active roster.[8] In 53 games for the Brewers in 2021, Reyes batted .256/.333/.359 with 1 home run, 3 RBI, and 4 stolen bases.[9]

In 2022, Reyes appeared in only 5 games for Milwaukee, going 4–for–15 (.267) with no home runs or RBI. On October 28, 2022, he was removed from the 40-man roster and sent outright to the Triple–A Nashville Sounds.[10] Reyes elected free agency following the season on November 10.[11]

Oakland Athletics[edit]

On November 19, 2022, Reyes signed a minor league contract with the Oakland Athletics organization.[12] He was assigned to the Triple-A Las Vegas Aviators to begin the 2023 season, where he played in 21 games and batted .257/.385/.351 with 1 home run, 10 RBI, and 3 stolen bases.[13]

Boston Red Sox[edit]

On May 12, 2023, Reyes was traded to the Boston Red Sox in exchange for cash considerations.[14] The following day, his contract was selected to the active roster.[15] Reyes immediately provided stability at the shortshop position for the Red Sox, as well as a decent showing at the plate. [16] He was with Boston until June 23, when he was placed on the injured list with an abdominal strain.[17] He was activated from the injured list on July 24.[18] Reyes hit his first career grand slam, a walk-off, in a 6–2 win against the Kansas City Royals on August 7.[19] On August 28, Reyes was again added to the injured list, due to left elbow inflammation;[20] he rejoined the team on September 12.[21]

Personal life[edit]

His younger brother, Samuel Reyes, also plays professional baseball.[22]
