I think Bregman would be too much unless the Red Sox offered to pay the majority of his remaining salary.  For a possible about a half year rental the Red Sox would need to take back a lot of that salary for it to make sense for the Brewers.  The best I would offer the Red Sox would be Joey Ortiz and a lottery ticket for Bregman and the Red Sox pay $4mm of the remaining contract and pay all of the deferred money owed.

I don't think the Red Sox would accept this but that is the best I would offer for Bregman and that contract.

Bregman is a risk, which is why I don't think the Brewers would pursue him.

If he stays healthy, he's opting out. He's having a monster season.

But if he gets injured...
