Player Outlook
Reyolds appeared on the way out of Pittsburgh after requesting a trade last offseason, but he instead inked an eight-year, $106.75 million extension early in 2023 to end the contract drama. On the field it was more of the same for the outfielder, as he played in 145 games for the second straight year, though his .790 OPS, 24 homers and 8.5 percent walk rate were a bit down from 2022. However, he set a career high with 12 stolen bases and improved his strikeout rate to 21.6 percent to go along with 85 runs and 84 RBI. He's been well above average at the plate over the past two years but has been unable to replicate the .302/.390/.522 slash line he posted in 2021, and the recent production may be more realistic to expect moving forward. With that said, Bryan Reynolds enters 2024 as a reliable and extremely productive fantasy option in the outfield as he enters his age-29 campaign.

  • Pirates' Bryan Reynolds: Cruz should help with production

    Reynolds is expecting to improve his production in 2024 thanks to the return of Oneil Cruz, Kevin Gorman of TribLive.com reports. Reynolds has been a consistent producer and managed to top 80 RBI and runs scored last season even with Cruz missing most of the season. The former batted almost exclusively second in the order in 2023 and is projected to bat in the same spot heading into the 2024 campaign. That will likely put him between Cruz and Ke'Bryan Hayes in the order, giving the top of the lineup the potential to be plenty productive.
