Mets stop Reyes' winter ball bid

Quote:
SANTO DOMINGO, Dominican Republic -- The New York Mets prohibited Jose Reyes from playing winter ball, not wanting to take any chances with the health of their star shortstop.

The 23-year-old Dominican had expressed interest in playing in the winter league for the Cibao Gigantes.

"Reyes is an important part of our team," general manager Omar Minaya told Channel 37 in the Dominican Republic. "That's why the Mets organization decided that he will not play."

Reyes batted .300 with 19 home runs, 81 RBI and 68 stolen bases in 153 games last season. He also won the Silver Slugger award, given to the top offensive performer at each position.

"We want him to keep healthy for the next season,'' said Minaya, who is visiting the Caribbean nation.
I think this is a smart move. He is an outstanding ball player. If he was on my team, I wouldn't want him to get hurt either.

It's a smart move by the mets. He has become a Dynasty player and he shouldn't risk any troubles in Winter Ball. He should just relax and wait upon the preseason. Hopefully other Mets players who are now bigger players join reyes in being prohibited.

meh it's in contracts that if they get injuried out of the MLB they can lose money, so It could go either way. So many players play in the Winter league and they're fine, so kind of surpised they didn't allow him to do the same...
