Red Sox Eye Bregman, Consider Guerrero Jr. Option

Alex Bregman, a top free agent on the MLB market, is being courted by several teams, with notable interest from the Boston Red Sox. Despite the Red Sox's interest, they may delay pursuing Bregman to potentially target Vladimir Guerrero Jr. if he becomes available. Walker Buehler, recently signed by the Red Sox, is actively recruiting Bregman, leveraging their longstanding friendship and shared interests outside of baseball. Buehler's efforts and Bregman's ties with Red Sox manager Alex Cora could increase the likelihood of Bregman joining the team. The Red Sox are interested in Bregman not only for his talent but also for his potential fit as a second baseman, despite his history as a third baseman. Meanwhile, Buehler's contract with the Red Sox includes a significant salary and performance bonuses, indicating the team's commitment to strengthening their roster.
