Posts two-inning save Reyes earned the save against the Diamondbacks on Tuesday, allowing one hit and striking out three over two scoreless frames.

Impact The Cardinals went to Reyes earlier than usual in the contest, bringing the closer in to start the eighth inning in a one-run game. He ran into immediate trouble when the first two batters he faced reach base via an error and a single, but a well-timed strikeout followed by a double play got him out of the eighth unscathed. Reyes remained in the game for the ninth inning and faced much less stress, retiring the side in order on a flyout and a pair of strikeouts. The successful save conversion was Reyes' 19th in 19 attempts this season, and he lowered his ERA to 0.98 with the pair of shutout frames. While a 7.4 BB/9 means that Reyes has frequently pitched with runners on base this season, he has been able to limit the damage by racking up 50 strikeouts in 36.2 innings.

Earns save Saturday Reyes earned the save Saturday against the Pirates after tossing a scoreless inning.

Impact Reyes made quick work of finishing the Pirates in the ninth, as he needed just eight pitches (seven strikes) to earn his 18th save of the campaign. He's still a perfect 18-for-18 in save chances in 2021 and while he's pitched slightly worse than his 1.04 ERA indicates (1.33 WHIP), he's done a good job of limiting the damage thus far.

Earns win Tuesday Reyes (4-2) earned the win in relief Tuesday against the Marlins after tossing a scoreless inning, allowing one walk and striking out one.

Impact Reyes entered the ninth inning with a 1-1 tie and while his command wasn't the best -- he tossed only six of his 12 pitches for strikes -- he still got the job done. The right-hander continues to shine as one of the best late-inning relievers in the National League and improved his ERA to a sterling 0.82 mark after completing his third straight scoreless outing.

Picks up another save Reyes notched a save Monday against the Marlins after tossing a scoreless ninth inning with one strikeout.

Impact Reyes picked up his 17th save of the campaign and was absolutely filthy, tossing nine of his 10 pitches for strikes and closing the door on the Marlins rather quickly. The right-hander has gone 17-for-17 in save chances thus far and owns a sizzling 0.84 ERA across 32 innings this season.

Sees low-leverage work Saturday Reyes fired a scoreless seventh inning during which he issued a walk and recorded two strikeouts in a loss to the Cubs on Saturday.

Impact The talented closer had only logged two appearances since June 1, so manager Mike Shildt opted to get him some work in a non-save situation Saturday. Reyes' fantasy value has been hurt by a lack of save opportunities recently, but he's still sporting an elite 0.87 ERA and 32.8 percent strikeout rate across 29 appearances.

Tagged with relief loss Reyes (3-2) was tagged with the loss Sunday against the Reds after allowing one run on one hit and a walk while fanning two across one inning.

Impact Reyes was tasked with pitching the ninth inning on a 7-7 tie, and he was tagged with the loss after allowing a home to Jesse Winker, who went deep three times in this game. The right-hander ended a streak of four scoreless appearances, but he still owns an excellent 0.90 ERA on the season.

Impact Reyes was called upon after St. Louis took a one-run lead in the top of the ninth and delivered with his 16th save, good for second best in baseball. This was a rare strikeout-less outing for Reyes who lowered his ERA to 0.62 with the strong showing.

Impact Reyes entered the ninth with a three-run lead and allowed the first two batters to reach base but retired the next three to secure the save. He's been one of the most electric relievers in the game with 12.5 K/9 but also sports a high WHIP of 1.36.

Collects win Thursday Reyes (3-1) walked one and struck out one in a scoreless inning, earning the win Thursday versus Arizona.

Impact The closer was brought in to pitch the bottom of the ninth in a tied game. Reyes became the pitcher of record when Yadier Molina hit an RBI double in the 10th, and Daniel Ponce de Leon was able to convert the save. The 26-year-old Reyes has a 0.67 ERA, 1.33 WHIP and 37:24 K:BB across 27 innings this year. He's converted all 14 of his save chances despite an ugly 8.0 BB/9 mark.

Handed first loss Reyes (2-1) lost Sunday's 2-1 match with Chicago, pitching one inning and allowing two runs (one earned) on one hit and two walks with two strikeouts.

Impact Reyes entered a scoreless game in the tenth and surrendered a Javier Baez two-run home run before walking two Cubs, but he was able to strike out the next two batters to limit any further damage. The run was only the second Reyes has given up all season, and he remains one of the game's best closer options thanks to a 0.72 ERA and 12.5 K/9.

Secures 14th save Reyes earned the save against the Cubs on Saturday, pitching a scoreless inning during which he gave up one hit and struck out one batter.

Impact The right-hander yielded a two-out infield single but was otherwise both effective and efficient in the outing, getting through the ninth inning on 13 pitches (eight of which were strikes). Reyes have been a revelation in his first full-time stint as a closer, going 14-for-14 in save chances and registering a minuscule 0.38 ERA across 24 innings. His 1.25 WHIP and 7.5 BB/9 suggest that the ERA is buoyed by some good fortune, but it's hard to argue with the overall results.
