Pirates star outfielder Bryan Reynolds has requested a trade from the team, The Pittsburgh Post-Gazette’s Jason Mackey reports, although it is “unclear” as to why Reynolds made the decision.
In response, a Pirates spokesman said the request will not have an impact on the team’s plans moving forward.
“While it is disappointing, this will have zero impact on our decision-making this offseason or the future,” the team said, via Mackey. “Our goal is to improve the Pirates for 2023 and beyond.”
Reynolds is signed through 2025 and will make $6.
