Welcome to SB Nation Reacts, a survey of fans across the MLB. Throughout the year we ask questions of the most plugged-in Pirates fans and fans across the country. Sign up here to participate in the weekly emailed surveys.
Welcome back to Reacts. This week’s question is a dovetail off of Ethan’s post from earlier this week about the biggest 2026 MLB All-Star game snubs. Ethan selected Brandon Lowe and Bryan Reynolds as the biggest Pirates snubs. Braxton Ashcraft was a pretty big initial snub, but
he was recently named to the game.
Here’s the breakdown:
Lowe
Avg: .241
HRs: 21
Doubles: 20
RBIs: 64
SBs: 1
Slug: .500
OBP: .320
OPS: .820
WAR: 3.1
Reynolds
Avg: .281
HRs: 14
Doubles: 21
RBIs: 56
SBs: 6
Slug: .473
OBP: .397
OPS: .870
WAR: 3.2
So there you have it. This is a close one, but who is the bigger snub?
