Since Pittsburgh Pirates outfielder Bryan Reynolds requested a trade at the start of this past offseason, it’s been a roller coaster of emotions for Yankees fans. With a hole on New York’s roster in left field for most of the winter, it was a “Will they or won’t they?” scenario for a while.
A deal was never close to actually happening between the Pirates and Yankees. At least, there were no reports saying things were remotely close. That didn’t stop Yankees fans from dreaming about Reynolds landing in the Bronx and wearing pinstripes.
Those dreams have officially vanished for now.
