René Reyes (born February 21, 1978 in Isla Margarita, Venezuela) is a Major League Baseball outfielder and switch-hitter who currently plays for the Pericos de Puebla in the Mexican League. His only MLB experience came as a member of the Colorado Rockies (2003-2004).
Reyes was billed as one of the best pure hitting prospects around, a good outfielder, and his speed is above-average, but Reyes struggled in two trials with the Rockies in 2003-04. He did not play any professional baseball in 2005.
In two seasons, Reyes has batted .220 with two home runs and eight RBI in 81 games.
In 2007, Reyes played baseball in Mexico and the Venezuelan Winter League. He signed with the Pericos in 2008
