Alex Bregman has a solid career to reflect upon. After hitting the free agency market, it’s only natural for teams to go all in for the star slugger. Bregman has the numbers to back him, especially when it comes to the postseason.
Bregman is in demand and is likely to sign with a team this winter. The Houston Astros are predicted to re-sign their Two-Time World Series Champion. Yet, the market for a third baseman is expected to hit the sky in the coming weeks. Bregman can play both third base and shortstop, but most of all, his outstanding numbers make him unique.
In a recent podcast on Foul Territory, former Yankees catcher Erik Kratz praised Alex Bregman for his incredible performance at the plate. Kratz also believes that the Astros will sign Bregman.
“I’m saying he’s going back to Houston, but what he would bring to another team, you guys hit on it. How many guys do what he does in the playoffs, yes push that aside. This guy has never struck out a hundred times in one season,” Kratz said.
Kratz further touched upon Bregman’s numbers, which stand out from several other sluggers.
“He is a career 132 OPS plus under a 100 strikeouts. This guy is consistently putting together at-bat that the rest of the team can feed off of,” Kratz continued.
