The largest bombshell of the MLB trade deadline dropped on Tuesday night, as the Cincinnati Reds acquired Trevor Bauer from the Cleveland Indians in a massive three-team trade with the San Diego Padres.

One Padre that was sent to Cleveland was outfielder Franmil Reyes, which helped San Diego acquire Cincinnati's No. 1 prospect Taylor Trammell.

While Reyes is heading to a certified playoff contender in the Indians, we're here to remind you that about a year ago, he got a tattoo of Petco Park on his chest.

Yikes, that didn't age well. But this comes with the territory of being a professional baseball player.

Reyes signed with the Padres organization back in 2011 as an international free agent. He would make his MLB debut in 2018, but has really shined in this 2019 campaign. While he's batting slightly above .250, Reyes has hit 27 home runs and knocked in 46 runs.

While Reyes will have the memories and massive tattoo to commemorate his time with the Padres, he's officially a Cleveland Indian, where he will use his power to help them inch closer to a playoff berth.

Perhaps he should avoid a tattoo of Progressive Field, though.
