The Red Sox simply didn’t get enough at the plate from their outfielders last season en route to a last-place finish, which might be why it’s no surprise that they’re on the market for some outfield talent.
Boston is “among many teams to express interest” in Pirates outfielder Bryan Reynolds, The Boston Globe’s Alex Speier reported Saturday.
Reynolds, who turns 28 in January, has been a consistent force at the plate for much of his first four seasons in the majors. The switch-hitter has a career .281 batting average and .842 OPS, posting 24 home runs and 79 RBIs in a 162-game average.
