Cherington backed up his promise by giving outfielder Bryan Reynolds the largest contract in club history. The people spoke to the AP on condition of anonymity because the deal was not official, pending a physical. It marks a somewhat of a turnaround for the soft-spoken Reynolds, who quietly requested a trade in December. “Let’s ride,” Reynolds posted in typically brief fashion on Instagram shortly after he and the team agreed to terms on Tuesday. Reynolds is not expected to play in the opener, remaining out after being placed on the bereavement list on Sunday.
