Alex Bregman’s free agency sweepstakes are heating up, and the Houston Astros are officially out of the race. While teams like the Boston Red Sox remain in the mix, MLB.com’s Thomas Harrigan believes the Detroit Tigers are the best fit for the star infielder.
With Cy Young winner Tarik Skubal under control for just two more seasons, the Tigers are under pressure to win now. Their offense, which ranked 19th in runs scored last season, could get a massive boost from Bregman. The Tigers have payroll flexibility and an unsettled hot corner, making them the perfect landing spot for the $200 million superstar.
Detroit hasn’t made a major offseason splash yet, unlike the Blue Jays and Red Sox. Adding Bregman would make them instant playoff contenders and could set the stage for a serious push toward an American League Pennant. Will the Tigers seize the moment?
