's time to play baseball added NEW YORK - During a charity event in New York, Jose Reyes said he felt strong and health training ahead of the Mets. He also said he was not worried for his next contract in baseball.
"To be honest, right now I do not think my contract," said the Dominican, who can become a free agent for the first time since the 2011 season. "I think to help this team win many games, to see what happens. And try to play a full year, because the last two years have been difficult for me. I just want to stay in health. "
Indeed, Reyes was held to exercise the legs in the winter of 2009-10, due to a surgery she underwent in October 2009 to repair his right hamstring. The three-time All All-Star, who played in just 36 games in 2009-began late last season, but said he has been able to train harder this winter.
Reyes will be submitted to training with 205 pounds, seven more than their normal weight to play. But according to the shortstop, that has not affected his speed. In fact, the 27-year player said he feels in good shape and wants to pitch.
"I spent the winter training, putting strong and 100% to go to training. I want to come," said Reyes. "There is no doubt that I will be like 2008. There is no doubt because I worked so hard this winter."
Reyes said he has spoken with the new Mets general manager, Sandy Alderson, but the conversation was more about personal things that business. He said that there had been talks between him and the team for a contract extension, and that there is any deadline for negotiations. Now he wants to play and think about money later.
"I just want to play baseball and see what happens," he said. "I do not care so people say, if I will change or that. The main thing here is to play baseball, try to do my job and help the team win many games. "
