When are the big baseball signings coming?
If there's one player we're keeping an eye on (among many, of course), it's Alex Bregman. The outfielder, who spent the 2025 season in Boston, is on the radar of several teams.
The Red Sox, who benefited from his performance and wisdom in 2025, are among them. And everyone knows they have the money to make it happen, since Rafael Devers is no longer in town.
Word on the street is that the Red Sox have an “aggressive” offer on the table for Bregman's services. That's what Jen McCaffrey confirmed—and it's along the same lines as what Buster Olney said recently.

Bregman, who could be looking for a six-year deal, obviously doesn't have the offer he wants on the table. Otherwise, he would have signed and there would have been a press conference in Boston.
The third baseman is said to want more money.
With Scott Boras and the Red Sox at the heart of the matter, one has to wonder how much of the leaked info is being used to apply pressure. And there's every reason to believe that if the Red Sox have a good offer on the table, it's to their advantage to leak the whole thing publicly.
As we read more and more that the Blue Jays could be trading away Bo Bichette, a name often linked to the Red Sox since the start of the offseason, we have to wonder.
I'll be of the opinion that Bregman is gonna end up back in Boston until it doesn't happen, but yesterday made me wonder if I haven't put enough stock into the possibility of it being Bo.

– Strength of Sox offer to AB being leaked why? https://t.co/wn9LCprVSk– Gordo (@BOSSportsGordo) January 7, 2026
The file has time to evolve a lot since nothing seems imminent, but we're at the point where the club and the Bregman clan know what offer will make a contract happen.
It just remains to be seen whether it will happen or not.
