Dang that is a solid deal
So its Bregman, trade or nothing. I really hope they dont do something stupid and get Verdugo.
Alex Bregman knows what he wants — and is holding out for it
Top remaining free agent Alex Bregman is getting creative short-term offers but is still waiting for someone to meet his expectations.

Top remaining free agent Alex Bregman is getting creative short-term offers but is still looking for (and expecting) six-plus years. Teams involved include the Cubs, Red Sox, Astros and Tigers.
Astros GM Dana Brown suggested a lack of optimism on Bregman, though word is they’ve come up from their reported $156M, six-year offer from November.
Bregman is a rare 30-year-old seemingly unaffected by the qualifying offer. The Pete Alonso-Mets negotiations are a reminder how much the qualifying offer/draft pick attachment changes the equation.

Feels like Bregman is getting increasingly unlikely but I hope we just blow his socks off with an offer
I don't even care if he sucks in the last couple years of it, I just want to do something more

Wow that’s great value.
I sort of wish we did that deal instead of the Gimenez trade. Moncada at 3B, put Clement at 2B, keep Horwitz, and pocket the 90 million we save on Gimenez for pitching or whatever else.

You’ll care in a couple years when you’re watching another Springer but this time one that makes even more money.
They need to trade for another bat. Signing Bregman to a long term deal shouldn’t even be considered.

They wouldn't even have to consider Bregman if they hadn't been stupid enough to let Chapman leave
They tried to sign his fraud ass but he was like nah. f*** chapman. Got real tiring watching his ass take shite at bats after shite at bats.
Chapman signed for relatively cheap, but he bet on himself with the opt out and it paid off.
Even assuming he would have taken the same deals from the Jays that he signed with SF, he would either be gone now after opting out, or they would have him for $150 million from age 32-37.
Bregman's a year younger, so if you're concerned about Bregman declining in the back half of the contract...
