The Boston Red Sox are just weeks from Alex Bregman's likely contract opt out. The third baseman could look to re-sign with the Red Sox, but if they refuse to meet his asking price, he could turn elsewhere.
That would be disastrous for the Sox, who traded away Rafael Devers, their only other long-term option at third base, in June. Bregman is the best option in the 2025-26 class of free agent third basemen — Eugenio Suárez, Max Muncy (who has a club option on his contract), Gio Urshela, Josh Rojas, Jon Berti, Yoán Moncada and Luis Urías are the other impending free agents.
