Toronto Blue Jays struggle to secure Alex Bregman, face competition from MLB teams

As Spring Training approaches, star infielder Alex Bregman remains a key free agent, with interest from multiple teams, including the Boston Red Sox, Chicago Cubs, and Detroit Tigers. While Bregman is seeking a long-term contract, recent reports indicate that he may need to consider a shorter deal to re-enter free agency next year. The Red Sox are particularly notable, as manager Alex Cora has a history with Bregman from their time together in Houston, and the team could use his right-handed bat. However, there's reportedly some internal division within the Red Sox management regarding a potential signing. The Toronto Blue Jays, who have also shown interest, might miss out on Bregman as the focus appears to be shifting to other suitors. With the urgency of Spring Training looming, a decision from Bregman is expected soon.
