Red Sox Target Infield Power: Bregman Beckons?

The Boston Red Sox are actively exploring options to strengthen their roster, with Alex Bregman and Ketel Marte frequently mentioned as potential targets. Despite Ketel Marte's superior skills according to some analyses, former player A.J. Ramos leans towards Bregman due to his established presence and clubhouse impact. The Red Sox are prioritizing additions that offer both offensive power and improved infield defense, a combination they believe Bregman could provide.

Recent reports indicated that players like Pete Alonso and Kyle Schwarber were higher on the Red Sox's wish list. However, with both now off the market, the focus has seemingly shifted back to Bregman. Chris Cotillo of MassLive suggests that a reunion with Bregman is becoming more probable as the organization addresses its need for power and defensive stability.

Sources within the Red Sox organization acknowledge that while Bregman's offense may have dipped slightly following a premature return from injury last season, his defensive contributions were invaluable. His ability to secure wins with his glove is seen as a significant advantage for a team that has struggled with infield defense for years, potentially leading them to negotiate a deal for his return.
