Overview

• Bregman’s resurgent 2025 season produced a .303/.384/.549 slash line with a 156 OPS+ and an All-Star nod.
• Represented by Scott Boras, he is widely expected to exercise his 2025 opt-out clause to explore the open market.
• Analysts frequently identify the Detroit Tigers as a logical suitor, citing positional need and competitive fit.
• Other contenders named include the Yankees, Phillies, Dodgers, Mariners and Mets, though teams may balk at matching last winter’s top offers given his age.
• Boston retains the option to pursue a post-opt-out extension, balancing payroll constraints against a young, cost-controlled core.
