According to 1Up.com, a popular video game website, Mets SS Jose Reyes will be featured on the cover of this year’s MLB 2K8 video game by 2K Sports.

Chris Snyder, Director of Marketing for 2K Sports, regarding their new cover star, as quoted by 1Up…

“Jose is a young, exciting, game-changing player who is on the cusp of super-stardom-much like 2K Sports and Major League Baseball 2K8.  That isn’t to say he doesn’t game. Jose almost took down Justin Morneau in our Bigs Home Run Derby last year during All-Star Weekend in San Francisco. We didn’t hold being runner-up against him…we still put him on the cover!”
