March 5.10: Reyes out with thyroid issue.

Mets shortstop Jose Reyes was scratched from today’s game and will return to New York for tests after it was detected in Thursday’s bloodwork that he could have a thyroid imbalance.

Reyes will be tested through Monday and won’t play until at least Wednesday.

Reyes said he doesn’t feel any differently.

“I don’t know what’s going on, this is the first time I’ve ever had something like this,” Reyes said. “I have to be worried. I can’t do anything.” Reyes also said this issue has nothing to do with his hamstring issues.

Feb. 3.10: Reyes talkin’ it up.

Mets shortstop Jose Reyes, who appeared in only 36 games last season, has been running sprints at a Long Island training facility and said he’s ready for spring training. And, SNY was there to record the moment for posterity.

“I’ll be ready in 2010,” Reyes said. “I can do everything I did before on the field … I can’t wait to hit a triple.”

Reyes, however, still needs to test his right calf and torn torn right hamstring tendon with baseball drills on both sides of the ball.

“Last year I came back too quickly,” Reyes said. “Everything is in the past. I don’t want to think about it. Now there is no pain. That’s the key. There is nothing to worry about. Everything’s perfect.”
