Commissioner Robert D. Manfred, Jr. announced on Tuesday that Colorado Rockies shortstop Jose Reyes has been placed on paid leave pending completion of his criminal proceedings in Hawaii, pursuant to Major League Baseball's Joint Domestic Violence, Sexual Assault and Child Abuse Policy. Section III.C.2 of the Policy permits the Commissioner to impose a paid suspension pending resolution of the legal proceedings or an investigation.

Upon resolution of Reyes' criminal proceedings and the completion of the Commissioner's Office's investigation into the incident, Commissioner Manfred will make a decision whether to impose discipline on Reyes. The Commissioner's Office will have no further comment on this matter until a final disposition is announced.
​
The MLB Players Association released a statement following MLB's announcement:
"We are closely monitoring the proceedings in Hawaii, as well as the Commissioner's actions under the Domestic Violence, Sexual Assault and Child Abuse Policy," the statement read. "If further discipline is issued, or if Mr. Reyes' paid suspension is not resolved in a timely fashion, the Players Association will work with Mr. Reyes to ensure that all of his rights under the Policy are protected. Pursuant to the confidentiality provisions of the Policy, the Players Association will have no further comment at this time."
