Mets shortstop Jose Reyes clearly looks out of place right now. He seems extremely uncomfortable at the plate, and appears to be very impatient. Reyes has already struck out in a third of his at bats this season, and has been swinging at awful pitches.
Additionally, as the SNY booth mentioned in yesterday’s broadcast, even the balls that he does hit in play are not hard hit balls, and it is not like there is just bad luck against him.
Instead, the balls that Reyes has hit in play have been very playable weak ground balls. The question at this point is what to do with Reyes as he looks lost, and whether or not to rest him.
