Bryan Reynolds Expected To Play Right Field; No Plans To Play First Base
Pittsburgh Pirates outfielder Bryan Reynolds will work as the team's right fielder in 2025, according to manager Derek Shelton. There was talk of the veteran possibly making a move to first base due to Spencer Horwitz's (thumb) injury, but he's apparently put those rumors to rest. He's not the only one making a move, as former shortstop Oneil Cruz is expected to play center for the Bucs, and newly signed Tommy Pham will man left field. Reynolds has played right field in the past, logging 398 innings there at the major-league level, so it should be somewhat familiar to him. Regardless of where he plays, the 30-year-old will be a reliable multi-category contributor again this season, as ATC projections foresee a .264-22-79-79-9 line with a .340 wOBA and 113 wRC+ in 2025. The two-time All-Star is fairly priced in drafts at the moment, owning an NFBC ADP of 91 overall compared to being ranked 84 overall at RotoBaller.
