Although the position of Alex Bregman with the Red Boston socks It is still deciding, the club is happy to have it.
“The most important thing was to get Alex to put on a uniform of the red socks as an elite defender,” said baseball director of the Red Sox, Craig Breslow, during Bregman’s introductory press conference on Sunday morning.
“The conversations about where you will play are ongoing, and when it is the right time, we will make that determination.”
Bregman joined the red socks in a three -year contract and $ 120 million after nine seasons with the Houston stars. He began 977 games in the third base, where he won his first gold glove in his career in 2024.
The cornerstone of the Rafael Devers franchise is currently rooted in the third base for Boston despite some defensive limitations. Bregman could see time in the second as a result. A game began in 2018.
That movement would represent a full circle moment for Bregman given his admiration for the legend of the Red Sox Dustin Pedroia.
“(Pedroia) approached me several times during the low season and spoke to me about how special it was to be part of Boston’s red socks,” Bregman said.
Bregman has a line of .272/.366/.483 with 191 homers, 265 doubles and 663 races promoted in 1,111 games in his career.
The two-time two times has a 1,240 OPS race in Fenway Park.
