Reyes Prognosis More Clear

Jose Reyes will be inactive for at least two weeks because of his thyroid.  However, that period of inactivity could be stretched to eight weeks and there is a chance that he won’t play a regular season game until May.

Analysis: 

This drops Reyes down a lot. Because there is also a chance of more complications, it’s hard to predict him to get more than 500 at-bats this year. Best case scenario is that he misses just a couple weeks of the season and gets 550+ at-bats but you can’t count on it. Missing Reyes and Beltran makes the Mets lineup pretty weak in April.
