The Tampa Bay Devil Rays drafted Reid in the 7th round of the 2006 MLB Draft out of James Madison University, where he played baseball for the Dukes under head coach Spanky McFarland.[1]

The Pirates signed Reid to a minor league contract after the 2012 season with an invitation to spring training as a non-roster player.[2] He started the 2013 season with the Triple-A Indianapolis Indians. The Pirates promoted Reid to the major leagues on June 3, 2013, and he made his major league debut that day.[3] He was optioned back to Indianapolis on July 7 when A.J.
