Alex Bregman's reunion with the Houston Astros has hit a wall. The negotiations between the two parties aren't going anywhere and recent signings of Paul Goldschmidt and Christian Walker have short-sighted the teams wanting the star third baseman.
Amid this, Bregman's agent Scott Boras' recent statement has only added fuel to the fire.
“Over time, teams learn: if you're running from leadership and talent, you're running from the ultimate goal,” Boras said on Monday, via The Athletic.
Boras’ critique suggests that the Astros may be prioritizing cost-cutting measures over retaining their core championship-caliber players.
In response to his remarks, Astros analyst Brett Chancey offered a confident rebuttal, implying that the team has managed to outmaneuver Boras in negotiations and maintain its competitive edge.
