Contract Status and Trade Rumors

Signing a minor league contract with the Mets last June, New York exercised their club option on Reyes for the 2017 season for the league minimum (1 yr/$535,000).

Becoming a free agent after the season depends on how Reyes plays, especially in different roles, to see if the Mets, or any team for that matter, wold offer him another contract. If he plays well, it wouldn’t shock me to see him come back to the Mets, whether it’s on another 1-year-deal or not.

This is obviously a place Reyes wants to be, and a place where the Mets like Reyes. If the opportunity presents itself yet again, I think both sides could come to an agreement.
