Houston Astros infielder Alex Bregman is one of the best free agents left on the market this winter. He has an incredibly hot market with teams like the Toronto Blue Jays, Boston Red Sox, Detroit Tigers, Philadelphia Phillies, and even the New York Yankees reportedly in pursuit.
Ryan Finkelstein of Just Baseball recently predicted the former Astros star to sign a $168 million deal with the Detroit Tigers this winter.

“Still, Bregman is the top third baseman on the market, who should have a healthy list of suitors,” Finkelstein wrote. “One of those suitors could be the Detroit Tigers, where Bregman would be reunited with his former manager A.J. Hinch. The Tigers could use a veteran with Bregman’s winning pedigree to help them build off their outstanding second-half push to a playoff berth in 2024.
“If Bregman ends up signing a six-year deal as we have projected, expect the AAV to be closer to $30 million a year than to $25 million. Still, we will stick with our original contract prediction for his market value, with him getting six years and $168 million.”
Bregman would be a huge addition to the Tigers. He would slot into the middle of their batting order for the length of his time with the team. Not only would he be a great player on the field, but his veteran presence would be invaluable as well.
It may cost Detroit a bit more than $168 million to steal him away from the huge markets like the Red Sox, Phillies, and Blue Jays, but it can definitely be done, and the Tigers may be the team to do it.
