Bryan Reynolds

Bryan Reynolds went 3-for-5 with a home run and an RBI in the Pirates' 7-6 loss to the Giants.

Fantasy Impact

This performance, highlighted by his seventh homer of the season, offers a glimmer of hope for fantasy managers who have been riding the waves of his somewhat inconsistent .260 batting average this year. Despite the Pirates' struggles, Reynolds continues to be a key contributor, now with 53 hits and 27 RBI through 51 games. His ability to connect for power while maintaining a decent on-base percentage, evidenced by his .335 wOBA, makes him a valuable asset in most fantasy formats. However, his strikeout rate remains a concern, and managers should keep an eye on any adjustments he might make to improve contact.

His performance included a crucial home run that contributed significantly to his RBI total for the day, yet it wasn't enough to secure a win for Pittsburgh. Despite the loss, Reynolds's power display is a positive sign for fantasy managers, especially considering his somewhat modest .251 batting average and six home runs over 50 games this season. His ability to drive in runs, evidenced by his 26 RBI, coupled with a decent on-base ability (0.320 wOBA), suggests he could be a valuable asset if he maintains or improves his current pace.

Fantasy Impact

This performance, featuring both a double and a triple, provides a slight uptick to his somewhat modest .243 batting average for the season. While Reynolds's power numbers have been underwhelming with only four homers, his ability to hit for extra bases is a reminder of the potential lurking in his bat. His season-long metrics, including a .325 wOBA and a .287 BABIP, suggest he's been somewhat unlucky, which could hint at better days ahead if those numbers regress towards the mean. Fantasy managers should keep an eye on Reynolds for signs of a breakout, especially in leagues that reward extra-base hits.

Fantasy Impact

His performance included a crucial home run that contributed significantly to the team's narrow win. This season, Reynolds has been hovering around a .264 batting average, which is decent but not spectacular. His power numbers, with four homers and 17 RBI through 28 games, suggest he's on pace to provide moderate power and run production. Fantasy managers should note his solid wOBA of .347, indicating his effectiveness at creating runs when he does connect. However, his strikeout rate of 20.2% remains a concern, potentially limiting his batting average upside. Overall, Reynolds remains a viable fantasy option, particularly in formats that reward power and on-base skills.
