The Pittsburgh Pirates have avoided arbitration with Bryan Reynolds by agreeing to a two-year deal.

Reynolds will earn $6.75 million in each of the next two seasons.

"I always hoped this would be the outcome and it was the outcome, so I'd say this was a win-win," Reynolds said. "I don't think anybody ever wants to go to a hearing. For me, personally, I love Pittsburgh. I love my teammates and everything like that. To knock it out quickly like we did and to land where we're at, I think it worked out really well."
