Houston Astros fans know all too well the type of drama that Alex Bregman creates on the free agent market. Bregman and his representation strung along the Houston faithful for almost an entire offseason before finally agreeing to terms with the Boston Red Sox last winter. But the former Astros infielder rolled the dice once again, re-entered the open market this winter. Bregman just signed a five-year, $175 million deal with the Chicago Cubs.
Much like the Astros last offseason — the Red Sox now face the grim reality of a gigantic void at the hot corner.
