"The Cubs have shown a renewed interest in pursuing Bregman as they expected to star outfielder Kyle Tucker in free agency this offseason, The Athletics Patrick Mooney and Sahadev Sharma reported. Chicago was among the handful of teams in the running to sign Bregman last offseason before he wound up signing with Boston in February. In fact, the Cubs actually offered Bregman a somewhat similar deal that he received from the Red Sox."
"Chicago reportedly offered Bregman a four-year, $115 million deal with player options following the second and third seasons. Bregman wound up signing a three-year, $120 million deal with the Red Sox that included player options following each of the first two seasons. He decided to opt out of his contract ahead of the start of free agency in November. The Cubs are one of the first teams besides the Red Sox to have reported interest in signing Bregman this offseason."
Alex Bregman opted out of his contract with the Boston Red Sox ahead of free agency. The Chicago Cubs have renewed interest after previously offering a four-year, $115 million deal with player options; Bregman instead signed a three-year, $120 million contract with Boston that included player options and later opted out. The Detroit Tigers, who reportedly offered a six-year, $171.5 million contract with deferred money last offseason, have been linked as a potential landing spot. The Phillies and Mets are also mentioned as suitors, and Boston remains a top fit for Bregman amid the winter market.
