  • The Boston Red Sox reportedly are a top contender for free agent Alex Bregman, but they have competition in an AL rival.

The article from Newsweek discusses the free agency of Houston Astros' third baseman Alex Bregman, who is set to become a free agent after the 2024 season. The Boston Red Sox are prominently mentioned as a potential suitor for Bregman, especially given their need for a strong third baseman following the departure of Justin Turner. However, the Red Sox face competition from other teams like the New York Mets, who are looking to bolster their roster after a disappointing season, and the San Francisco Giants, who have been active in the free agent market. The article also notes that Bregman's market value could be influenced by his performance in the upcoming season, his age, and the overall demand for top-tier infielders. Additionally, the Astros might consider re-signing him, but their financial commitments to other players could complicate negotiations.
