Alex Bregman

[TURBO]

The Astros could be open to trading 3B Alex Bregman this winter, according to former MLB GM and current MLB Network analyst Jim Duquette.

 

Duquette mentioned on MLB Network Radio that the Astros “are not gonna pay [Bregman]” what he and his agent, Scott Boras, want as a free agent. “There’s no chance he’s staying there. No chance.” As a result, Duquette mentions that it makes sense for the Astros to see what the market is for the veteran third baseman. “I think they’re listening. Keep on eye on Alex Bregman.” It’s a report that was also backed up by SNY’s Andy Martino.

Sounds like a Cubs target.

If we’re not planning on trading Burnes/Adames and going for one more run in 2024, then it would make some sense to check in on their asking price. Otherwise, doesn’t make much sense in a rebuild/retooling year.

I like Bregman but we won't be able to pay him either. Giving up 3 good prospects for a good year won't be the best idea. I also really doubt the Astos don't pay Bregman in the long run.
