If free agent third baseman Alex Bregman wants a lengthy contract this offseason, it doesn't sound like he'll get it from the Boston Red Sox.

“The Sox have remained engaged on Bregman, but multiple sources said as of earlier this week, the team’s interest had been in a deal of no more than four years,” writes Spier. “For now, it seems unlikely Bregman would accept a contract of that length.”

Despite the club's wariness to sign the veteran infielder to a big free-agent contract, it's hard to overlook the potential fit of Bregman with the Red Sox for the 2025 season.
