Jeremy Thomas Reed (born June 15, 1981 in San Dimas, California) is an American Major League Baseball outfielder who currently plays for the Seattle Mariners. Reed graduated from Bonita High School (CA) in 1999, and went on to play college baseball at Long Beach State University. He also played for the USA Summer National Team in 2001 and 2002.[1] Officially Reed is the starting center fielder for the team; however he is currently on the disabled list and is unexpected to return for the rest of the 2006 MLB season.
In the year of 2003, he was honored as the minor league player of the year, averaging .333 for Class A Winston-Salem in 66 games and .409 for Class AA Birmingham in 65 games.
Jeremy Reed is developing a history of injury. On March 24th, 2006 Reed injured his wrist when he ran into the padding in the outfield attempting to make a catch. [2] Reed injured his right thumb on July 2, 2006 trying to make a diving catch in the 11th inning [3], and he was placed on the 15 day disabled list (DL) on the 3rd. [4] On the 7th of July his thumb was identified as being broken; he was moved to the 60 day DL[5]; and scheduled for surgery. He started his rehabilitation in early August; but missed the remainder of the MLB season.[6]
Ichiro Suzuki moved to center field in mid-August 2006, making Reed's future with the Mariners uncertain.
