Bryan Reynolds

Brian Reynolds went 3-for-4 with two doubles, two RBI, and a run scored in the Pirates' 6-5 loss to the Braves on Thursday.

Fantasy Impact

Reynolds boosted his average to a robust .350 after this game. Sure, his .439 BABIP will regress at some point, but with a 48% hard-hit rate and 23.5% line drive rate, Reynolds could maintain a solid batting average even when regression hits.

Bryan Reynolds went 2-for-4 with a pair of doubles and two RBI in the Pirates' 10-4 loss to the Brewers on Friday.

Fantasy Impact

Reynolds is scorching right now, and raised his average to a robust .350 with this performance. The good times are bound to come to an end when his .430 BABIP corrects, but a 49% hard hit rate and 25% line drive rate should keep him hitting for a solid average all season, just not around .350.

Bryan Reynolds collected three hits during Monday's double-header, scoring twice and driving in a pair of runs.

Fantasy Impact

Reynolds continues to see consistent playing time batting near the top of the Pirates' lineup. All he's done is hit safely in nine of his last 10 games, posting a total slash on the year of .320/.369/.573 with five homers in 103 at-bats. He should continue to see steady playing time for as long as he is able to keep it up with the bat.

Bryan Reynolds went 1-for-1 with a pinch-hit, three-run home run in the Pirates' 14-6 win over the Rockies on Thursday.

Fantasy Impact

Reynolds had the day off in this one, but made a big impact when called upon. He's been red hot as of late, and now has a .321 AVG and .247 ISO on the year. He is competing with Melky Cabrera for playing time, and while Cabrera is hitting well Reynolds is younger and has a more complete skillset compared to Cabrera. The Pirates may prefer to see what they have in Reynolds and give him the bulk of the playing time while Corey Dickerson is out.

Bryan Reynolds went 2-for-5 with a solo home run and two runs scored in the Pirates' 6-4 extra innings win over the Rangers on Tuesday.

Fantasy Impact

Reynolds now has a .423 AVG and a .731 SLG in 26 PA this season. Reynolds will likely shift back into a fourth outfielder role with the return of Starling Marte and Gregory Polanco, and therefore has no fantasy value.
