Bryan Reynolds Hitting The Bench Monday
1 year agoPittsburgh Pirates outfielder Bryan Reynolds is not in the starting lineup Monday versus the Kansas City Royals and right-hander Zack Greinke. The 28-year-old acted as the club's designated hitter in Sunday's series finale with the Chicago Cubs but went hitless with a strikeout across four trips to the plate. It's been a solid, if unspectacular season for the outfielder who has hit .263 with 18 home runs, 10 stolen bases, and a .782 OPS across 117 appearances. That production has produced a 108 wRC+ that sits well below his 123 mark from last season and his 139 figure from the 2021 campaign. Nonetheless, his solid combination of power and speed are certainly palatable for fantasy managers while Joshua Palacios will take over in left field Monday evening in Kansas City.
