The New York Yankees are exploring options to fill their infield vacancies, with general manager Brian Cashman confirming discussions with Alex Bregman's agent. Bregman, a free agent and former Houston Astros star, is expected to demand a significant contract, potentially nearing $200 million.

Despite his recent dip in performance, Bregman remains a top target for the Yankees, especially with Gleyber Torres also on the market. However, his connection to the Astros' controversial past may complicate his reception among fans.
