The Pirates have been surrounded by trade rumors involving star center fielder Bryan Reynolds since the last trade deadline. This offseason, the Miami Marlins have discussed Reynolds with the Pirates, as outlined by Barry Jackson and Craig Mish of the Miami Herald.
It seems unlikely at this point that a Reynolds deal would be made. The Pirates and Reynolds aren’t discussing a contract extension right now, but Reynolds has four seasons of control remaining, and will make under $5 million this year. There’s not a lot of incentive for the Pirates to sign him right away.
