Anthony Reyes Dealt

Trigun_001_tiny by the red baron on Comment 118 comments

Hey everybody. Main post is still below, but I wanted to get this bit of news up.

It appears that Anthony Reyes has finally been dealt. I've been looking around, trying to figure out where to and for what, and luckily one of our great readers here sent along a link from the ESPN transactions page.

Link Here.

It appears the deal is for a minor league reliever name Luis Perdomo, along with cash considerations. Perdomo certainly has an intriguing arm, throwing mid 90s gas pretty consistently. He also throws a slider and changeup, though the few scouting reports I can find have those as being presently below average pitches. A little raw, obviously, but still intriguing.

I know everyone had their hopes up for the Matt Holliday deal that was proposed a while back here, but it doesn't look to be the case.

Is this a decent return for Anthony? In all honesty, yeah, probably. Guy just didn't have much value.

Good luck, Anthony. I'll always remember Game One. Hope you can get your stuff back together and become what we thought you were going to be. I, for one, think it could still happen for Reyes.

Where is it reported we got cash?

And regardless there’s no way it could be very much money seeing as how neither player was making anything.

good for Anthony

here’s hoping a fresh start is just what the Dr ordered for the kid. the Indians are a good franchise & i look forward to watching him.

now about that other trade with the Rockies. this is the first i’m hearing of it so i assume it’s not true. right? i mean how could it be? MO would be crazy to give up that many kids for fuentes & holliday. flat out crazy.

say it ain’t so MO. say it ain’t so.

because it doesn't work that way

for reasons that have been stated on this site something like 30 times since the barton acquisition. Every other team would have to let him pass through waivers before we could negotiate his rights with cleveland.

I wasn't

instead I got to go to the one Mulder started (I think?) where he got his ass kicked and then Ponson started plunking guys.

Funniest part was a long drive to right field by some Sox player (A.J. I think). At the time, our right fielder was Timo Perez. He sprinted back to the section of the wall that is chain link fence. He jumps into the fence while a fan is just standing there on the other side. The fence gives alot and Perez makes contact with the dude square in the chest sending him backwards about 10 feet landing on his ass. The stadium erupted on the replay.

A player was traded for bats recently, maybe they paid us 1M for ARey maybe it was just the remainder of the other guys salary, we don’t know yet the full conditions but I would expect it to be more than just a little bit.

We hardly knew ye...

Good luck Anthony! You were a true professional who didn’t whine and complain when the Cardinals sent you down or promoted less talented pitchers and left you in Memphis Limbo. I hope you pitch well and contribute to a fine Cleveland organization! Thanks for some great memories against the Tigers and the White Sox!
Perdomo is a closer and was one of the top relief pitching prospects for the Indians. He has a plus 90 mph fastball and a nasty slider. His current ERA in AA is about 1.00. He’s listed at 6 ft and only 170 pounds, but he has a reputation of being fearless. He has good control and averages better than a strikeout an inning. This kid has promise and barring injury or a trade may challenge for a roster spot on the St Louis club next spring or be called up in late 2009.

Deep down I hate that it came to this.....

No, I’m not having a drink. I will check in on him to see how he’s doing, but I have no intention of posting anything on the Indians message board.

I never met him, I never even knew anyone that met him. LaRussa set me off big time last summer when he referred to him as “no one” in Memphis. Reyes never responded to that-and I was forever on his side. Because each and everyone of us is someone. Even if we don’t pitch well; even if Mr. LaRussa doesn’t like us, we are all still someone. A boss should not be allowed to call an employee “no one.” Mr. Reyes is someone too. And he did handle all of his difficulties here with class and professionalism. The organization should have realized that; I hope someone did. I just don’t imagine anyone in the Cleveland organization is going to ever call Mr. Reyes “no one.”

He may never figure it out- but I’m glad he’s getting a new chance.

I’m not all that classy…..but thanks.

She isn't crazy, she's just not impressed.

by jillsinmo on Jul 26, 2008 6:50 PM EDT up reply actions   0 recs

I am here......I'm ecstatic.....

he was not really considered part of the organization for quite some time now. They did the honorable thing by making it official…..

Good for him going to Cleveland. They got Carmona back on track after failing, they got Cliff Lee back on track after failing, and they’ve been interested in Reyes before now. So maybe they see something in him that he needs to do to get back on track. It’s good the Cards were able to get anything at all. So I think it’s a good deal all around. I hope he can turn it around, and he’s got a better shot doing that in Cleveland than he was going to get in St. Louis.

I’m not saying he’s the next Lee or Carmona. I’m saying the Indians know something about dealing with pitchers that have good stuff and don’t know what to do with it. It’s the best possible fit at this point, at least for him. Except their own Jeremy Sowers…..they haven’t helped him much-I guess you can’t fix them all, but lefthanders are flaky.

She isn't crazy, she's just not impressed.

Finally....

Now that this issue is finally taken care of and Duncan is on the DL making him untradeable, does this allow Mo to move on to deals that are actually to help the team this year?

by 85CardsforLife on Jul 26, 2008 5:02 PM EDT reply actions   0 recs

From the Indian's SBN site:
In a separate and unrelated deal, the Indians have acquired RHP Anthony Reyes from the Cardinals for RHP Luis Perdomo. Reyes, 26, has had a solid season in Triple-A with a 3.25 ERA over 11 starts but faired poorly in ten appearances as reliever for the big-league club. Perdomo, 24, utterly dominated much younger Carolina League competition, and he’s pitched well since being promoted to Double-A earlier this month. Neither is considered a significant prospect.

Reyes famously shut down the Tigers in Game One of the 2006 World Series, playing a key part in the 82-win club’s improbable postseason run to a title. He has struggled to find any lasting success in the majors, however, with just 10 wins in 38 starts and a career ERA+ of 82. Ironically, the Cardinals to talked seriously to the Indians about acquiring Reyes this past offseason, in exchange for another young starter experiencing serious career difficulties — Cliff Lee.

The Indians presumably are looking at Reyes as a fifth starter option for the rest of this season, giving them a credible option especially in the event they trade Paul Byrd by August 31. Reyes will be out of options after this season, however, making him a non-option as a sixth or seventh starter in 2009. It’s unlikely the Indians will see him as a quality option for the rotation next year, so barring key injuries in Spring Training, he likely will be off our 40-man roster by the end of next March, one way or another.

The part about Cliff Lee made me fall out of my chair. Twice.

I think he’s no better than a left handed Ponson. Not the off the field issues, but he’s not a light-the-baseball-world-on-fire type of guy. Don’t know why the Yankees are going after him so hard.

Haren could have, big difference. I wish him all the luck, but to get a guy 2 yrs younger who TLR/Dunc don’t despise has to be about all we could hope for in return.

by hoofhearted-pujols on Jul 26, 2008 6:21 PM EDT up reply actions   0 recs

Way to make a completely false statement

Reyes and Haren are completely different cases with completely different arsenals. Reyes got his minor league strikeouts by going up in the zone with a strong fastball, and occasionally mixing in a change.

Haren on the other hand throws a filthy splitter that falls off the table.

Duncan / La Russa preach pitching low in the zone, which usually results in contact, Reyes was not a low ball pitcher, thus the conflict.

Haren on the other hand, is a low ball pitcher, and his out pitch, the splitter, either results in no contact or ground balls. Haren would’ve been a Duncan wet dream, strike outs and all.

boo cubs, hooray beer

by Raconteur on Jul 26, 2008 6:56 PM EDT up reply actions   0 recs

They would have "encouraged" him to get quicker outs, quicker than working a strike out.

I do think Haren would have been a completely different pitcher here. I really do. A star? Maybe, maybe not. Good pitcher, yes. They didn’t keep him around long enough to find out.

Colorado deal.....

Is very interesting.

I’d rather include Rasmus, and try to keep some of the pitching, or maybe subsitute Freeze in for Allen, or maybe Skip for Robinson. Would rather not give up Kmac or Garica either. Wish we could base it around Motte, Anderson, Robinson, and Todd.

We’d look a little like this, I think:

Miles 2B
Ludwick RF
Pujols 1B
Holliday LF
Ankiel CF
Glaus 3B
Molina C
P
Barmas SS

Duncan/Mather, Kennedy, Ryan, Barton, LaRue on the bench.

+1

totally agree. Seeing baseball jesus (Pujols) in a lineup with some REAL protection would take this season from its nadir to its zenith. But long time would be through next year. The thing is ludwick and holliday would be blocking rasmus. One has to go and I don’t like the idea of it.

morgan – its easier to steal off a lefty than a righty

mccarver – the most important thing with a knuckleball is to call, catch and hit it late – what the hell does it mean to call a knuckleball late? I would love to see a constant live feed from the booth when they do games bc i know Buck has this look like he just wants to punch McCarver in the face half the time.

I have heard many smart baseball people say

that it is easier to steal off a lefty than a righty because the lefty cannot throw over nearly as hard! That is their reasoning anyway. I do not think I agree with it though. I mean with a righty you can steal as soon as he lifts his front foot

Oh, something I found kind of cute and sweet and all.....

Some of the folks at Bucs Dugout were wondering why the Pirates (something I had advocated) didn’t throw the Cardinals a reliever for Reyes. It could have been the best place for help right now…....I wonder if the Cards even talked to them?

She isn't crazy, she's just not impressed.
