Reyes signed a contract with the Lotte Giants of the Korea Baseball Organization on Saturday, Jon Heyman of the New York Post reports. Following five seasons with the Tigers, Reyes spent all of 2023 at Triple-A Charlotte in the White Sox organization, posting a .792 OPS with 20 home runs. The 29-year-old has slashed .264/.294/.379 at the major league level.

Reyes was reassigned to minor-league camp by the White Sox on Tuesday. After signing a minor-league contract with the White Sox with an invitation to spring training, there was some thought that Reyes had a good chance of making the Chicago roster out of camp. Instead, he's reassigned to the minors, and the former Detroit outfielder will likely be an everyday option for Triple-A Charlotte to begin the 2023 campaign.

Reyes agreed to a minor-league contract with the White Sox on Friday that includes an invitation to major-league spring training, Evan Petzold of the Detroit Free Press reports. Reyes elected free agency after the Tigers removed him from their 40-man roster last month and he winds up remaining in the American League Central. The outfield depth with the White Sox is lacking, so it looks like a good landing spot for the 28-year-old. Reyes had a .254/.289/.362 batting line in 92 games for Detroit in 2022.

Reyes rejected an outright assignment to Triple-A Toledo and elected free agency Thursday, Evan Petzold of the Detroit Free Press reports. Reyes had a .254/.289/.362 slash line in 92 games for Detroit in 2022, and the organization opted not to keep him on the 40-man roster through the offseason. The 28-year-old will enter free agency and isn't guaranteed to secure a big-league deal for 2023.
