While his team has been mired in controversy this offseason, Bregman is coming off a season in which he was the runner-up for AL MVP (finished fifth in voting in 2018). He doesn’t strike out often (168 strikeouts compared to 215 walks over the last two years) and has also connected on 72 homers and 88 doubles with a .970 OPS over that time. He also showed great improvement in the field last year at both third base and shortstop.
Among the Astros giveaways this season is a back-to-back set. You can get the Alex Bregman one on May 27 and then get the Yordan Alvarez one on July 8. pic.twitter.com/KfJsLMl038
