Jose Reyes will start in Albuquerque

Colorado Rockies manager Walt Weiss says Jose Reyes will report to Triple-A Albuquerque for an injury rehabilitation assignment on Wednesday, the day after the former All-Star shortstop completes his suspension for violating Major League Baseball’s new domestic violence policy.

Reyes did not participate in spring training and was suspended through May 31 after being charged with domestic violence for an altercation with his wife in Hawaii last October. Prosecutors dropped the charge ahead of a scheduled April 4 trial, saying Reyes’ wife was not cooperating.

Reyes will make his way to Albuquerque after working out at extended spring training in Scottsdale, Arizona. There’s no timetable for his return to the Rockies after the 59-day suspension. A position player can spend a maximum period of 20 days on a minor league rehab assignment.

Asked what kind of time Reyes might need, Weiss said: “That’s one of those things you play by ear.”
