Homers in big win Reyes went 2-for-5 with a solo home run in Friday's 10-5 win over Cleveland.
Impact Reyes was one of three Detroit players to go deep in the big win, which snapped a 20-game losing streak to Cleveland. The 25-year-old outfielder is now slashing a respectable .275/.315/.420 with two home runs in 23 games, and with Christin Stewart and Cameron Maybin both struggling, Reyes could earn more playing time in the corner outfield spots for the Tigers.

Gets day off Reyes is out of the lineup for Thursday's game against the White Sox.
Impact Cameron Maybin will swap in for Reyes after the latter started in two of the first three games of the series. Reyes is a perfect 5-for-5 on stolen-base attempts this season, but he's largely been a non-entity at the plate with a .684 OPS in 68 plate appearances.

Notches fifth steal Reyes went 1-for-4 with a stolen base and three strikeouts in Wednesday's 5-3 loss to the White Sox.
Impact Reyes got aboard with a two-out single in the fourth and quickly stole second base, but he didn't come around to score. It was his fifth steal of the season. The outfielder is slashing .266/.309/.375 with a homer, five RBI and 11 runs scored through 21 games.

Sitting out series finale Reyes is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Indians, Evan Woodbery of MLive.com reports.
Impact Reyes will head to the bench after making 11 consecutive starts, during which he slashed .250/.302/.350 with eight runs, two RBI and three stolen bases. With JaCoby Jones locked in as Detroit's everyday center fielder and Christin Stewart's lineup spot against right-handed pitching at least temporarily secure, Reyes will likely have to battle recently-activated Cameron Maybin (quadriceps) for the final starting spot in the outfield in most games. Both Reyes and Maybin will take a seat in the series finale, however, as Harold Castro gets a rare start in right field.

Bags two hits Reyes went 2-for-4 with a double in Tuesday's 8-4 loss to the White Sox.
Impact With a southpaw (Gio Gonzalez) on the hill for Chicago, Reyes moved from the bottom half of the lineup to the No. 2 spot in the order while the lefty-hitting Christin Stewart received the day off. Reyes should continue to benefit from more favorable lineup assignments versus lefties, but he'll at least remain a fixture in the starting nine versus righties. He'll man right field and hit sixth Wednesday in the series finale, marking Reyes' ninth consecutive start.

Impact Maybin came up lame after legging out an infield single in the bottom of the ninth, and was replaced by Victor Reyes on the base paths. Reyes is a strong candidate to see increased action if Maybin is forced to miss extended time.
