Reynolds signed a contract with the Yokohama Bay Stars on Tuesday, Jon Heyman of the New York Post reports.

EDGE Analysis

Reynolds was non-tendered by San Diego after he turned in a 5.33 ERA and 1.37 WHIP over 27 regular-season innings in the majors. Rather than looking to rebound with another MLB organization, the 27-year-old righty will now take his talents to Japan in an effort to give new life to his career.

The Padres non-tendered Reynolds on Friday.

EDGE Analysis

Reynolds performed well in the hitter-friendly Pacific Coast League at Triple-A El Paso to the tune of a 2.86 ERA and 1.35 WHIP over 28.1 innings. However, he finished the regular season with a 5.33 ERA and 1.37 WHIP in the majors and will now have to seek out his next opportunity in free agency. No matter where he lands, the 27-year-old righty doesn't project to serve as anything more than a middle reliever.

The Padres optioned Reynolds to Triple-A El Paso on Saturday.

EDGE Analysis

Reynolds will lose his place in the big-league bullpen to make room for Randy Vasquez, who was recalled from Triple-A to start Saturday's game against Colorado. Reynolds, 27, owns a 5.33 ERA and 1.37 WHIP through 27 innings in the majors this season but could still make another appearance for San Diego if/when the team needs a fresh bullpen arm.

The Padres recalled Reynolds from Triple-A El Paso on Monday.

EDGE Analysis

Reynolds has appeared in 18 games for San Diego this season and owns a 5.55 ERA, 1.32 WHIP and 22:13 K:BB across 24.1 innings. He'll likely handle a low-leverage relief role during his upcoming stint with the Padres.

The Padres optioned Reynolds to Triple-A El Paso on Saturday.

EDGE Analysis

The 27-year-old righty will lose his place on the big-league pitching staff due to Michael King (shoulder) returning from the injured list Saturday. Reynolds carries a 5.55 ERA and 1.32 WHIP through 24.1 innings in the majors this season but remains an option to return to San Diego down the stretch whenever the Friars need a fresh bullpen arm.

The Padres recalled Reynolds from Triple-A El Paso on Tuesday.

EDGE Analysis

JP Sears was optioned to Triple-A El Paso on Tuesday in a corresponding move. Reynolds made three appearances with Triple-A El Paso after being optioned June 30. He allowed no runs with a 4:2 K:BB across 2.2 innings, and he also earned a save in his last game Aug. 2.

The Padres optioned Reynolds to Triple-A El Paso on Monday.

EDGE Analysis

Reynolds' latest stint in the majors lasted only a few days, and he struck out the side in his lone relief appearance in Friday's 8-1 loss to the Reds. He's being sent out to make room on the active roster for Matt Waldron, who was called up from El Paso to start Monday's game versus the Phillies.

The Padres recalled Reynolds from Triple-A El Paso on Wednesday.

EDGE Analysis

San Diego placed starter Ryan Bergert (forearm) on the 15-day injured list to open up a spot on the 26-man active roster for Reynolds. Bergert tossed just three innings before leaving Tuesday's 4-3 win over the Nationals after being struck on the forearm by a comebacker, so Reynolds will offer the Padres a fresh relief arm for Wednesday's series finale after San Diego needed four relievers to cover the final six frames of Tuesday's contest. Reynolds has delivered a 4.15 ERA, 1.11 WHIP and 19:8 K:BB in 21.2 innings at the big-league level this season.

The Padres optioned Reynolds to Triple-A El Paso on Saturday.

EDGE Analysis

The move makes room on the 26-man roster for Bryan Hoeing (shoulder), who was reinstated from the 60-day injured list. Reynolds posted a 4.15 ERA, 1.11 WHIP and 19:8 K:BB across 21.2 innings with the Padres, though he did not give up a run in nine of his last 10 outings. He should get another call to the majors this season should the Padres need depth out of the bullpen.

Reynolds (0-1) took the loss against Atlanta on Saturday, allowing three runs on six hits and no walks with one strikeout over 2.2 innings.

EDGE Analysis

Reynolds tossed 35 of 57 pitches for strikes but was hit around in his first major-league start. The 27-year-old owns a 7.45 ERA, 1.45 WHIP and 10:3 K:BB across 9.2 innings and should return to the bullpen after making a spot start in place of Michael King (shoulder).
