Projected Role in 2017

Because of a pretty packed infield, we will most likely see Reyes in the outfield at certain parts of the season. We don’t know how David Wright’s health will hold up, so expect to see him on the hot corner for most of the season.

As for the middle infield, Reyes will obviously be used on days to give Neil Walker and Asdrubal Cabrera time off. It’s always a good problem when you have an excess of players who can play multiple positions. Especially with how last season went, New York could use all the healthy players they can find.

I have a feeling we’ll be seeing Reyes in a multitude of positions to help the Mets succeed.
