Career highlights and awards

Anthony Loza Reyes (born October 16, 1981) is a former American professional baseball right-handed pitcher in Major League Baseball (MLB). He played a total of five seasons mainly as a starting pitcher for the St. Louis Cardinals and Cleveland Indians. The Cardinals selected him from the University of Southern California in the 15th round of the 2003 MLB draft, and while still in the minor leagues, he was considered their top prospect. He was a member of the Cardinals' 2006 World Series championship team.

Reyes attended California High School in Whittier, California. He was once considered too small to be a pitcher, but proved the coaches wrong and played varsity and went on to USC. He goes back to California High during the off season to practice and stays in touch with the coaches.

Reyes spent his college years at the University of Southern California from 2000 to 2003, and though he was selected by the Detroit Tigers in the 13th round of the 2002 amateur draft, he elected to return to school for his senior year. He was on several USC teams with San Diego Padres pitcher Mark Prior. In four seasons with the Trojans, Reyes compiled a 17–16 record and earned Pac-10 honors three times. He was drafted in the 15th round by the St. Louis Cardinals in 2003.
