3 years agoThe Pittsburgh Pirates haven't discussed a contract extension with outfielder Bryan Reynolds. Before the lockout, teams and players on the 40-man roster weren't allowed to communicate; nothing was brought up about his future in Pittsburgh. "I didn't hear anything regarding that from them," said Reynolds. The 27-year-old was the subject of multiple trade rumors before the lockout but is under team control until 2025. "I want to be here," said Reynolds. "I like Pittsburgh." He was the focal point of the 2021 trade deadline and remained in Pittsburgh despite the team receiving multiple trade offers for the outfielder. He was terrific in 2021, slashing .302/.390/.522 with 24 homers, 35 doubles, eight triples, 90 RBI,93 runs, and five stolen bases across 158 games. It remains to be seen if a rebuilding Pittsburgh team will extend Reynolds or deal him once the lockout ends. Stay tuned.--Brad Camara - RotoBaller
