Alex Bregman Signs $120M Deal With Red Sox, Ending Nine-Year Astros Tenure

The two-time All-Star and World Series champion joins Boston on a three-year contract with opt-out options after each of the first two seasons.

Alex Bregman has signed a three-year, $120 million contract with the Boston Red Sox, including opt-outs after the 2025 and 2026 seasons.
The deal positions Bregman to play second base for the Red Sox, complementing Rafael Devers at third base in Boston's infield.
The Astros, Cubs, and Tigers pursued Bregman, but Boston's offer of a higher annual salary and flexibility through opt-outs secured the deal.
Bregman expressed gratitude to the Houston Astros and their fans in an emotional farewell, reflecting on his nine seasons and two World Series titles with the team.
The Astros have turned to other options to fill Bregman's void, including Isaac Paredes and recently acquired Nolan Arenado, while Cubs prospect Matt Shaw now has a clear path to their third base role.
