Blue Jays general manager Alex Anthopoulos said it "would not surprise me" if Jose Reyes returned in late June.
Reyes had the walking boot on his left foot removed Tuesday and is evidently recovering a bit ahead of schedule, as he had been expected to sit out until around the All-Star break. The shortstop is still in the early stages of his recovery, though. A lot can happen over the next six weeks. May 14 - 6:12 PM

Apr 28 - 12:27 PM

Blue Jays transferred SS Jose Reyes from the 15-day disabled list to the 60-day disabled list.

Blue Jays manager John Gibbons said Monday that a specialist in North Carolina has determined that Jose Reyes (ankle) will not require surgery.

Reyes suffered a severe sprain of his left ankle Friday night and is expected to miss approximately three months. While it's obviously great news that Reyes won't need surgery, Gibbons hasn't heard anything about a revised timetable for the shortstop's return.
Apr 15 - 4:22 PM

Blue Jays general manager Alex Anthopoulos said Saturday that Jose Reyes (ankle) will miss three months.

Reyes suffered a severe left ankle sprain Friday on an awkward slide into the second base bag. He had to be carted off the field, and now comes confirmation that the injury was as bad it looked. It's a brutal blow for the Blue Jays, who are off to a sluggish 4-6 start. Maicer Izturis will handle the bulk of playing time at shortstop for now.
Apr 13 - 5:00 PM

Blue Jays placed SS Jose Reyes on the 15-day disabled list with a sprained left ankle.

Reyes suffered the injury Friday on an awkward slide into second base and had to be carted off the field. The Blue Jays will go with a combination of Maicer Izturis and Emilio Bonifacio to replace Reyes, who could miss anywhere from 1-3 months. Munenori Kawasaki has been recalled from Triple-A Buffalo to provide middle infield depth, though GM Alex Anthopoulos has indicated that he's already had discussions with other teams about a possible trade. Anthopoulos considers a one-month absence for Reyes a "best case" scenario.

Blue Jays general manager Alex Anthopoulos estimated Friday that Jose Reyes (ankle) could miss anywhere from 1-3 months.

We'll have a better idea on Reyes' status following an MRI on Saturday, but Anthopoulos considers a one-month absence the best-case scenario. It's a crushing blow for the Blue Jays and for fantasy owners who invested a high draft pick on the dynamic shortstop. Emilio Bonifacio probably has the edge to start over Maicer Izturis at shortstop, but Anthopoulos indicated that he has already had discussions with other general managers about possible trades.
Apr 13 - 12:03 AM

Jose Reyes was diagnosed with a left ankle sprain and will undergo an MRI.

Reyes suffered the injury Friday on an awkward slide into second base. He remained on the ground writhing in pain with tears streaming down his face before being carted off the field. It didn't look good, but the Blue Jays and fantasy owners will cross their fingers until the MRI results are in. Maicer Izturis and Emilio Bonifacio figure to see regular playing time if Reyes requires a lengthy absence.
Apr 12 - 11:10 PM

Jose Reyes was removed in the sixth inning of Friday's game against the Royals with an apparent ankle injury.

Reyes suffered the injury on an awkward slide into second base on a stolen base attempt. He remained on the ground and was seen crying and writhing in pain before being carted off the field. The team should have an update on his status shortly, but he could be facing an extended absence.
Apr 12 - 10:22 PM

Jose Reyes had a monster day at the plate in Friday’s loss to the Red Sox, going 4-for-5 including a home run.

Reyes also doubled twice, scored a run and drove home a pair on the evening. He had a brief injury scare in the fifth inning when he came up limping after being thrown out trying to stretch a double into a triple, but remained in the game and homered in his next at-bat. He’s already taking the American League by storm, hitting .375 (6-for-16) with a homer, two RBI and a steal through his first four games.
Apr 5 - 10:45 PM

Jose Reyes went 4-for-5 and scored two runs in the Dominican Republic's win over Venezuela Thursday.

Robinson Cano (three hits, three RBI) and Hanley Ramirez (solo homer) were the other offensive stars for the Dominican. Reyes has been red-hot this spring, as he went 9-for-14 in Grapefruit League play prior to the start of the WBC.
Mar 7 - 11:38 PM

Jose Reyes went 3-for-3 with a homer and a double in the Blue Jays' 11-6 defeat of the Phillies on Saturday.

Reyes is 9-for-14 with no strikeouts this spring. He'll be the Dominican Republic's shortstop when Pool C play starts in Puerto Rico on Thursday.
Mar 2 - 3:53 PM

Jose Reyes went 3-for-3 before being removed for a pinch-runner Wednesday against the Astros.

He was caught stealing after one of the previous singles. Still, that hardly matters right now. Reyes, who will play shortstop for the Dominican Republic next month, is off to a 5-for-8 start.
