7 years agoSan Diego Padres outfielder Franmil Reyes launched his first career home run Monday against the Washington Nationals. Reyes connected off starter Gio Gonzalez in the fourth inning for a two-run, opposite-field blast. Recalled on May 14 for his prodigious power, Reyes is off to a slow start with only three hits and seven strikeouts in 21 plate appearances. With outfielder Hunter Renfroe (elbow) nearing a return, Reyes' skill set may become redundant. The Padres have a crowded outfield and they may opt to send the 22-year-old Reyes back to Triple-A El Paso to continue his development. Barring any roster transactions, Reyes is likely a power option in only the deepest fantasy leagues.--Andrew Le - RotoBaller
