Bryan Reynolds Homers, But Pirates Fall to Cubs
by Matthew Adam | Pirates Correspondent | Tue, Aug 27th 6:16am EDT
Bryan Reynolds went 1-for-3 with a home run and an RBI in the Pirates' 18-8 loss to the Cubs.
Fantasy Impact:
Despite the team's rough outing, Reynolds managed to add a solo shot to his season tally, bringing his home run count to 20. This performance is a silver lining in an otherwise forgettable game for Pittsburgh, and it underscores Reynolds's consistent power production this season. With a batting average of .282 and a solid .347 wOBA, he remains a reliable option in fantasy lineups, especially in formats that reward power and on-base percentage. However, his high strikeout rate could be a concern for some managers, particularly in points leagues where strikeouts are penalized.
