CHICAGO (AP) --- All-Star third baseman Alex Bregman has agreed to a $175
million, five-year contract with the Chicago Cubs, according to two people
familiar with the deal.
The people spoke to The Associated Press on Saturday night on condition of
anonymity because the agreement was pending a physical. ESPN was the first to
report on the move.
Bregman, who turns 32 in March, was back on the market for a second straight
offseason. He was pursued by the Cubs before he signed a $120 million,
three-year contract with Boston last February, with opt-outs after each of the
first two seasons.
He decided to test free agency again after hitting .273 for the Red Sox with 18
homers and 62 RBIs in 114 games, his fewest since 2021. Bregman missed all of
June with a quadriceps injury.
