The Houston Astros are moving on from third baseman Alex Bregman, as general manager Dana Brown indicated that the team is no longer pursuing his return. The Astros have made significant roster changes, including acquiring infielder Isaac Paredes and signing first baseman Christian Walker, which suggests they are prepared to fill Bregman's position.
Brown acknowledged that negotiations with Bregman have stalled, despite an initial competitive offer. The Astros have shifted their focus to new acquisitions, leaving little room for Bregman, who has been a key player for the franchise.
As Bregman enters free agency, he is expected to attract interest from several teams, including the Boston Red Sox, New York Yankees, and Detroit Tigers. The Astros, however, are committed to remaining competitive and have plans to continue shaping their roster for the upcoming season.
