Reyes bunting for base hits

As part of my efforts to get beat up in the schoolyard (has that one particular big blog called me a moron yet today?) I’ll ask this one.

Does anyone know where we can find stats about how often Reyes bunted for a hit?  During the game I had the same question as the Post reader below – where did this magic ability to bunt for a hit come and why wasn’t it used more often?

John Fortuna: What’s lost in the shuffle of all the talk about Jose Reyes’ bunt is that I honestly can’t recall him bunting once for a hit in the last few years — even when he was slumping, even when there was a guy on third with two men out and the ream was scuffling for runs. That’s what bothers me most about this whole episode.

VAC: Everything about that moment bothered me, and still bothers me. Reyes has had a good run in New York, and been treated by Mets fans as well as any player since Keith Hernandez. He owed them better. He just did.
