When the Detroit Tigers demoted outfielder Victor Reyes to Triple-A Toledo on May 8, manager AJ Hinch asked him to make improvements. To warrant a return to the major leagues, Reyes needed to find a consistent offensive approach, make contact, draw walks and limit his strikeouts.
After nine games with the Mud Hens, Reyes is back on the Tigers' radar.
The 26-year-old is hitting 16-for-37 (.432) with four doubles, one home run, six RBIs, two stolen bases, four walks and four strikeouts. He is riding a nine-game hitting streak, with five multi-hit games.
