NEW YORK -- As Jose Reyes jogged off the Citi Field diamond for the final time in 2011, he hoped it would not be the last time he would do so as a member of the New York Mets.He could not have imagined the circumstances that would surround his next appearance with the Mets.Reyes is expected to make his equally anticipated and controversial return to the Mets on Tuesday night in the second game of a three-game series against the Miami Marlins -- the team with whom Reyes signed a six-year contract following the 2011 season and the team that traded him to the Toronto Blue Jays after just one season in southern Florida.That Reyes is reuniting with the Mets against the Marlins will barely qualify as a subplot Tuesday. Reyes, who signed with the Mets as a 16-year-old in 1999 and made four All-Star teams while winning three National League stolen base crowns and one batting title during nine campaigns in New York, was suspended for the first 51 games of this season following an arrest on domestic violence charges in Hawaii last Halloween.Reyes wife, Katherine, accused Reyes of grabbing her by the throat before shoving her into a sliding glass door. Charges were dropped after she didnt cooperate with authorities.The Colorado Rockies, who acquired Reyes from the Blue Jays last July 28, designated him for assignment June 15 and released him 10 days later. The Mets, in need of a spark plug atop the lineup and a third baseman after David Wright underwent neck surgery, signed him to a minor league deal almost immediately.From a motivational standpoint, I dont think we would be able to find a player who is more determined, more highly motivated, to perform than Jose is today, Mets general manager Sandy Alderson said during a conference call June 25. Part of that is coming home. Part of thats looking for vindication. Part of that is probably hoping to get past all the problems hes faced since the offseason -- problems he deserved to face.While Reyes will certainly be motivated, the Mets have no idea what kind of reception hell get, or what kind of production hell provide. He stole 24 bases last season but batted just .274 with a .310 on-base percentage and a .378 slugging percentage -- his lowest figures in each category since 2005.In addition, Reyes -- who will be making his major league debut at third base -- batted just .176 with no homers, two RBI and one stolen base in nine games for Double-A Binghamton. The Mets are banking on Reyes kicking into another gear once hes under the brighter lights.What he brings to the baseball field is something that could really be a kind of pick me up for this team and the fans, Wright said last week. The fans get into it, it kind of rubs off on the team.Mets left-hander Steven Matz is scheduled to take the mound against Marlins left-hander Wei-Yin Chen. Matz is 0-1 with an 11.57 ERA in two career starts against the Marlins while Chen is facing the Mets for the first time.The Mets came back from an early six-run deficit to win Mondays series opener, 8-6. New York (45-37) is 1 1/2 games behind the Los Angeles Dodgers in the race for the first NL wild card spot and four games behind the Washington Nationals in the NL East.Miami (43-40) is in fourth place in the wild card race, 2 1/2 games behind the Mets.
