BOSTON -- After months of speculation, drama and that ever looming offseason trade request, the Bryan Reynolds contract saga is seemingly at its final chapter. The two sides have agreed to the monetary portion of a new deal. There's just one final issue lingering.
Reynolds wants an opt-out on his deal.
As previously reported, the Pirates and Reynolds both moved off of their original offers by the tens of millions and found a figure that works for them: Seven more years after the 2023 season for $100 million in new money.
