It is becoming unjustifiable for the New York Mets to keep Jose Reyes on their roster. While the four-time all-star does offer a veteran presence and a contagious, outgoing personality to the clubhouse, his good vibes just aren’t translating to his baseball abilities anymore.
Fans were elated in 2016 when the Mets decided to take a chance on Reyes after he destroyed his reputation with a case of domestic violence. The numbers just haven’t been there and there is no longer a place for him on this team.
Reyes does not have the speed or the power he once did when he first started with the Mets in 2003.
