Quick Midnight Thoughts:
I'm happy Alex Bregman is not a Yankee.
I'm also not happy that Alex Bregman is not a Yankee.
The Red Sox have gotten considerably better from this deal.
The Yankees are still without a third baseman, and the best one on the open market is now on their closest- and most important- rival.
The Yankees-Red Sox rivalry will now have some new fuel for the fire. That's exciting!
This now takes the Red Sox out of the Nolan Arenado sweepstakes. Looks like it's down to the Yankees and Dodgers now. This has to lower the asking price of Arenado, and raise the demands for the Cardinals to meet.
Alex Bregman is a good baseball player. I want good baseball players on the Yankees.
Alex Bregman is also going to make $40 Million in 2025. The Yankees were never going to reach that high for him.
If the Yankees truly cared about winning, however, they would've offered Bregman the same deal instead of getting stuck in a game of chicken involving Nolan Arenado.
Oh, and Bregman will play second base...I wonder what Gleyber Torres thinks of that. A superstar is moving positions to best accommodate a team that he's never played for.
One last note: It felt like Bregman was going to be a Tiger this whole offseason. Instead, he goes to play second base for the Red Sox. Who's playing second base for the Tigers? Gleyber Torres.
