Alex Bregman Fantasy

Houston Astros third baseman Alex Bregman was unable to participate in the team's workout on Wednesday because his COVID-19 test results were delayed. The situation is being described as a "snafu" and team sources have declared that Bregman is "fine." But this is the second such test that has delayed an Astros player from joining the team in the past few days, something that should concern MLB in regards to the efficiency of their testing process. The runner-up to the 2019 MVP is integral to the Astros success during this season's 60-game sprint. He should be able to join the team in workouts by the end of the week.

Houston Astros third baseman Alex Bregman hit his first home run of the spring in the third inning against the Cardinals on Wednesday. Bregman was all smiles rounding the bases but the Astros continue to be marked men around the league. The 25-year-old was promptly hit by a pitch in his next at-bat as seven Astros hitters have now been plunked this spring. Bregman is at the top of his game and is coming off a season that featured 80 extra-base hits, 112 runs batted in and an OPS of 1.015. It may be difficult to eclipse those totals in 2020 but Bregman remains a surefire first round selection in upcoming fantasy drafts

Houston Astros third baseman Alex Bregman went 1-for-2 with a walk and a double in the team's 11-1 spring training win over the Tigers. Bregman took the field for the first time since the sign-stealing scandal came to light in the offseason. Bregman and other Astros player were booed during the introduction and throughout the game. But totaling three bases in his first outing of the spring is a positive step for a top-eight talent in fantasy heading into drafts. Whether Bregman's production will dip this season will be a story to follow all season but he still should be considered a sure-fire first round selection at this time.
