Jo-Jo Reyes, P, Atlanta BravesWednesday 6/10, 10:50 AM CT
Jo-Jo Reyes re-injured his right hamstring during a rehab start at Triple-A Gwinnett on Tuesday the Atlanta Journal-Constitution reports. He was hurt covering first base during the first at-bat of the game.

Our View: The starter Reyes was hurt pitching in relief for the Braves on May 20 after losing his rotation spot. In other words, whenever he does come back, it will not be as a member of the Braves rotation. His to-date 7.00 ERA also suggests he might not be an effective reliever in 2009. His fantasy value is zero until further notice.

Jo-Jo Reyes has been sent to Triple-A to start his rehab assignment, according to TSN. He has been recovering from a hamstring injury.

Our View: Reyes is not a solid hurler, and is only worth waiting for in deeper NL-only leagues. He held a 7.00 ERA over 27 innings this season prior to landing on the DL.
Jo-Jo Reyes, P, Atlanta BravesThursday 5/21, 6:58 PM CT
According to the Associated Press, the Braves have placed pitcher Jo-Jo Reyes in the 15-day disabled list with a hamstring injury.

Our View: Reyes injured himself in his first appearance after being banished to the bullpen. There is no timetable for his return.
Jo-Jo Reyes, P, Atlanta BravesFriday 5/15, 4:19 PM CT
The Associated Press is reporting that the Braves have removed Jo-Jo Reyes from the rotation and placed him in the bullpen. Reyes has struggled since being moved to the rotation, and he is expected to be replaced by Kris Medlen.

Our View: Reyes was pretty bad as a starter this season, so this move is not a shocker. The shocker comes from the fact that the Braves chose Medlen over top prospect Tommy Hanson. Both have been impressive in Triple-A, but Medlen has been just a bit better. He could be worth a look in NL-only leagues at this point.
Jo-Jo Reyes, P, Atlanta BravesFriday 5/8, 9:11 PM CT
Jo-Jo Reyes got blasted by the Phillies on Friday. He allowed eight runs (four earned) on five hits and two walks over just five innings. His defense let him down, but Reyes allowed three balls to leave the park in the Braves' 10-6 loss.

Our View: Homers were not a problem for Reyes this season until today. But that's what happens when you head to Philly and face a stacked lineup in a tiny ballpark. Reyes is now 0-2 with a 5.48 ERA in four starts this season.
Jo-Jo Reyes, P, Atlanta BravesSunday 5/3, 4:49 PM CT
Jo-Jo Reyes struggled on Sunday against the Astros and was touched for four runs on six hits and three walks over just 5.1 innings. The Braves fell 7-5, but Reyes didn't factor in the decision.

Our View: Reyes was sterling in his last start, but looked like a different pitcher on Sunday. He struggled with his control and needed 77 pitches to get through five-plus innings. Until he shows some consistency he won't have much fantasy value outside of deep NL-only leagues.
Jo-Jo Reyes, P, Atlanta BravesTuesday 4/28, 8:56 PM CT
Jo-Jo Reyes was brilliant on Tuesday, tossing seven innings and allowing just one run on three hits and a walk in the Braves 2-1 win over the Cardinals. He struck out seven, but didn't factor in the decision.

Our View: Reyes allowed his run in the first and then settled into a groove. He didn't allow a hit after the second inning and kept a very good hitting Cardinal team completely off balance. He looked like a completely different pitcher than in his first start of the season.
Jo-Jo Reyes, P, Atlanta BravesSaturday 4/18, 2:11 PM CT
Jo-Jo Reyes was rocked for five earned runs on seven hits over 5.2 innings of work in Saturday's 10-0 loss at the Pirates. He had three walks and four strikeouts.

Our View: Reyes was recalled from Triple-A to replace the injured Tom Glavine in the rotation. Reyes may have hurt his chance for more starts following today's dismal performance.
Jo-Jo Reyes, P, Atlanta BravesSaturday 4/18, 9:30 AM CT
Jo-Jo Reyes has been recalled from Triple-A Gwinnett to start today's game against the Pirates, according to the Atlanta Journal-Constitution. He will be replacing the injured Tom Glavine.

Our View: Reyes could see more time as the Braves' No. 5 starter in the rotation if he fares well, beginning today at PNC Park. Reyes is worth a look as a flier for NL-only leagues.
Jo-Jo Reyes, P, Atlanta BravesMonday 4/13, 4:11 PM CT
According to MLB.com, Jo-Jo Reyes will be called up from Triple-A Gwinnett to start Saturday's game against the Pirates in place of Tom Glavine.

Our View: Glavine is set to visit Dr. James Andrews for an examination on his shoulder, so Reyes could find himself making more starts in the near future.
Jo-Jo Reyes, P, Atlanta BravesWednesday 9/24, 11:02 PM CT
Jo-Jo Reyes allowed three runs and five hits in 3 1/3 innings on Wednesday as the Braves defeated Philadelphia 10-4.

Our View: The left-hander was 0-7 with a 7.79 ERA in his previous 12 appearances.
Jo-Jo Reyes, P, Atlanta BravesThursday 9/4, 6:37 PM CT
Jo-Jo Reyes will have his next start pushed back to Sunday after he spent some time away from the team for the birth of his first child., according to MLB.com. James Parr will start in his place on Thursday night against the Nationals.

Our View: Parr was 13-7 with a 3.52 ERA in 28 starts in the minors this season and appears to be auditioning for a role in the Braves rotation for the 2009 season with the uncertainties that are John Smoltz and Tim Hudson. Reyes has stunk of late anyway going 0-6 with a 7.75 ERA in his past nine appearances, maybe his kid will wake him up from the fog he has been in.
Jo-Jo Reyes, P, Atlanta BravesTuesday 8/19, 9:33 PM CT
Atlanta LHP Jo-Jo Reyes watched a strong performance go down the tubes this evening as his offense failed to support the cause, falling 8-3 to the Mets. Reyes pitched six innings, allowing two runs (both earned) on four hits with three walks and five strikeouts.

Our View: Reyes gets no decision, stuck at 0-3 over his last five starts running through July and August. He's allowed more than a few earned runs along the way, 17 to be exact (two more than he surrendered through six June starts combined).
Jo-Jo Reyes, P, Atlanta BravesMonday 8/18, 11:09 AM CT
Jo-Jo Reyes is expected to be recalled from Triple-A Richmond to start Tuesday in place of Tom Glavine, according to the Atlanta Journal-Constitution.

Our View: Reyes was dealt a loss in five of his last six outings with the Braves, and is only worth consideration in deeper NL-only leagues for roster depth.
Jo-Jo Reyes, P, Atlanta BravesMonday 7/28, 4:19 PM CT
Jo-Jo Reyes was sent down to Triple-A Richmond on Monday, according to the AP. He has surrendered 17 runs in his last 13.1 innings.

Our View: Reyes won't stick around Triple-A long. The Braves simply had a need for fresh arms and Reyes went 2.2 innings on Sunday. However, he has lost his last five starts so he likely has some things to work on.
Jo-Jo Reyes, P, Atlanta BravesSaturday 7/5, 9:12 PM CT
Jo-Jo Reyes fell to 3-7 on Saturday by allowing four tuns to the Astros in 4.1 innings. Reyes allowed six hits and three walks while only striking out two.

Our View: Reyes has now lost three straight decisions and six of his last seven. He still is maintaining average ratios (4.40 ERA, 1.43 WHIP), but those clearly aren't numbers you should be running out there each week.
Jo-Jo Reyes, P, Atlanta BravesSunday 6/29, 4:15 PM CT
Jo-Jo Reyes held the Blue Jays to six hits and one run over seven innings on Sunday, but the Braves lost 1-0. The 23-year-old southpaw walked two, struck out five, and slipped to 3-6.

Our View: The Braves have to be pleased with this youngster's progression. Reyes owns a 3.22 ERA, 1.16 WHIP, and 35 strikeouts over his last seven starts. He has only managed one win during that span, but it's hardly his fault. Fantasy owners who have him in a keeper league should be excited.
Jo-Jo Reyes, P, Atlanta BravesWednesday 6/18, 11:23 PM CT
Jo-Jo Reyes gave up two runs on five hits in seven innings, striking out three and walking four. The left-hander wasn't involved in the decision after leaving the game tied at 2.

Our View: Reyes continues to impress. His performance was even more impressive due to the lineup and the venue he pitched against and in. The southpaw held the highest scoring offense in the majors and did it in hitter-friendly Rangers Ballpark in Arlington. His BB rate is still unattractive but the young lefty is learning on the job and faced the best tonight.
Jo-Jo Reyes, P, Atlanta BravesFriday 6/13, 11:58 PM CT
Jo-Jo Reyes allowed two runs on five hits, walked two and struck out five in eight innings and the Braves defeated the Angels 5-2 on Friday night.

Jo-Jo Reyes, P, Atlanta BravesSaturday 6/7, 10:23 PM CT
Jo-Jo Reyes piled up eight strikeouts over 7.1 innings, but he allowed two home runs and four runs to pick up his fourth loss.

Our View: Reyes long ago lost the feel good aura that was surrounding him. He is now 0-2 in his last four decisions and he has allowed 17 earned runs over his last four starts (6.04 ERA).
Jo-Jo Reyes, P, Atlanta BravesMonday 6/2, 12:58 PM CT
Jo-Jo Reyes will take the hill against Florida tonight, and he will be looking to build upon his last start, when he only allowed one earned run on two hits over seven innings against the Brewers on May 28, according to MLB.com.

Our View: He also struck out a season-high nine batters against the Brewers, but was dealt a loss, in a 1-0 final. Reyes had been bothered by a blister on the index finger on his left hand, but it was healed by his last start as well.
Jo-Jo Reyes, P, Atlanta BravesWednesday 5/28, 9:48 PM CT
Atlanta LHP Jo-Jo Reyes pitched a gem for the Braves, but the bats failed to show as his team suffered the 1-0 loss to Milwaukee. Reyes pitched seven innings, allowing just one run on a grand total of two hits surrendered, walking three and striking out nine.

Our View: Reyes is now 2-3 in six starts, though tonight is a nice break in what was becoming an alarming trend of struggle, having allowed a combined 14 earned runs and four home runs over his last three starts before tonight's heartbreaking loss.
Jo-Jo Reyes, P, Atlanta BravesSunday 5/18, 3:35 PM CT
Atlanta LHP Jo-Jo Reyes didn't last terribly wrong but his effort was good for the win as the Braves put the 5-2 hex on the Oakland Athletics. Reyes went five innings, giving up just two runs (both earned) on eight hits, touting two walks with six strikeouts on the day

Our View: Reyes surrendered his first home run on the season and now carries seven walks versus 17 strikeouts through four starts.
Jo-Jo Reyes, P, Atlanta BravesTuesday 5/13, 9:07 PM CT
Jo-Jo Reyes had a poor outing on Tuesday night as he permitted 11 hits and five runs in 6.2 innings for the Braves.

Our View: Reyes now has a 4.30 ERA after three starts, though with 20 hits allowed in 14.2 innings we are a bit worried about his ability to stay productive moving forward making him best left for spot duty in NL Only leagues.
Jo-Jo Reyes, P, Atlanta BravesThursday 5/8, 1:14 PM CT

Jo-Jo Reyes, P, Atlanta BravesSaturday 5/3, 9:42 PM CT
Jo-Jo Reyes made his first start in the rotation in place of the injured John Smoltz on Saturday against Cincinnati, and he came through with a win, as he only allowed one run on four hits over 5.1 innings, with three walks and five strikeouts.

Our View: Reyes made a blip on the fantasy radar with his strong performance, and he is worth a look if you need help at the position right now. Smoltz may return to the bullpen upon his return from the DL.
Jo-Jo Reyes, P, Atlanta BravesSaturday 5/3, 10:39 AM CT
LHP Jo-Jo Reyes will make his first start of the 2008 season this evening as the Atlanta Braves welcome the Cincinnati Reds, the middle game of a three-game set, according to the Sports Network.

Jo-Jo Reyes, P, Atlanta BravesWednesday 4/9, 2:09 PM CT
Jo-Jo Reyes threw five scoreless innings at Triple-A, allowing only one hit and striking out six. He struggled with his control in the majors last season, but he is still likely the first man in line for starts in the minors. Of course, if Mike Hampton ever makes it back healthy, Reyes could have a tough time getting starts in the Atlanta organization in 2008.
Jo-Jo Reyes, P, Atlanta BravesThursday 4/3, 11:32 PM CT
