i still don't see how people think this guy is going to be OK. he wasn't THAT good when he was all juiced up. now that he's off the juice he's worth nothing. he asked for a day off earlier this year, his body is shot.

In his better years he was a top 5 SS. That's pretty good.

of course hell rebound

remmy358 · 05-08-10, 09:11 PM

y'all not recognizing that he was on steroids and is now off.

azn624 · 05-08-10, 09:17 PM

He's still a good player and just needs time to get back.

Are you saying that just because of the thyroid issue? It's exactly a rare condition.

He's going to bounce back. And even if he doesn't, he's still an improvement over Kaz Matsui.

so since we base things off the beginning of the season

we can give andre Ethier the tripple crown now
paul konerko can have AL MVP
Barry Zito gets cy young
padres win the NL West
Reyes goes out of baseball because of his bad 30 games
Ubaldo will go 35-0

sounds right? only the first 30 games matter especially for the players who hadnt played a major league game in over 11 months.

teaserpleaser · 05-09-10, 09:25 AM

was he really on juice kid looks like he weighs 160 lbs

teaserpleaser · 05-09-10, 09:28 AM

jose reyes is 6-1 200lbs really (espn listed)

keyboarding · 05-09-10, 09:42 AM

This is why books are still in business, fukks like this who think they understand the game.

well put sir.

remmy358 · 05-09-10, 10:16 AM

at 80 games i'm gonna bump this and we'll see how reyes is doing...

this is different than any other slow starter considering the circumstances. do you see me throwing out others' names saying their career is over because of a slow start? no...

but jose reyes is different.

he has nothing left.

i have no respect for people who can't spell "triple" correctly. i regret even responding to your post.

NYMNYG10 · 05-09-10, 10:21 AM

i have no respect for people who say someones career is over based on his first 25 games games of the season

i have no respect for people who take my statement out of context and don't realize he's the only player with a slow start i'm saying this about.

i think you need to look at his stats and games played from 05-08. he played in 150+ games for 4 yrs straight, almost 200 hits/yr, 60+ stolen bases, 10-20 HR, 60-80 RBI, 100+ runs, great defense, and fired the team up. now he's worthless.

well, at least he fits right in with the rest of the team- all star stiffs' defined

on july 1st, if hes hitting .230 and has only about 20 steals and is hitting 8th and has causes the mets harm you can bump this thread, for now its entirely pointless.

Chi_archie · 05-09-10, 10:32 AM

he'll be ok

314cashes · 05-09-10, 10:32 AM

I don't really think he even cares to play anymore. No heart

You definitely don't watch the Mets very often.

Wait, I thought you said his career was over?

What 80 games?

He should be out of the league very shortly, right?

NYMNYG10 · 05-09-10, 11:20 AM

how could you say he doesnt care anymore, watch his reactions in the dugout and on the field, after hitting a triple hes pumped and when he strikes out he slams his bat, half the things said in this thread are ridiculous. Reyes will be fine

he's making too much money to just dump. do you think if he was a 400k/yr player he'd be playing now?

of course theyll have to play him, and of course he'll get more shots...but like JJ said, he'll be out of the league soon enough.

Yeah in about 10 years.

stealthyburrito · 05-09-10, 01:25 PM

I hope he doesn't leave the bigs soon, I would miss the "Jose, Jose" spoof of "ole, ole".

ehetz21 · 05-09-10, 01:59 PM

He can become another juan pierre type player and just steal a base every night

keyboarding · 05-09-10, 02:48 PM

A single, stolen base, and run scored today against Lincecum. 2/3 right now.

So only the ABs that fit your stupid scenario matter. Hitting against Lincecum didn't count, right?

Grandmaster B · 05-09-10, 04:17 PM

he has something that cannot be taught...something that cannot be coached

SPEED

just too bad his bones are made of glass...should have been drinking more milk

He's never broken a bone. He's pulled muscles though.

remmy358 · 05-09-10, 04:54 PM

y'all need to look up some common injuries/health conditions from HGH and steroid users.

Then factor in the doctor connected to HGH reyes has been working with.

Then connect the dots and draw your own conclusions.

mlb · 05-09-10, 04:55 PM

I think he'll be alright ... Never a premiere player and never a top 5 Fantasy player again if you are into that sort of thing.

Guys, Remmy is right, and clearly smarter than all of you.

I mean, really. Hitting .667 against a two-time reighning cy young winner is embarassing. He struckout for heaven's sake. He's done. Actually, come to think of it, is anybody hitting over .667 this year? I think we should just cancel the season. Clearly nobody is at the professional level.
