The Houston Astros are exploring options to retain free-agent third baseman Alex Bregman, with general manager Dana Brown indicating some flexibility in their offer. Currently, the Astros have proposed a six-year deal worth approximately $156 million, which would be a record for the franchise.

However, Bregman’s future remains uncertain as he has attracted interest from several teams, and his market value may be influenced by recent contracts signed by other infielders. Despite this, Brown emphasized that the Astros have a set value in mind for Bregman and may not significantly alter their initial proposal.
