Alex Bregman News
Houston Astros third baseman Alex Bregman was placed on the injured list due to health and safety protocols on Wednesday. The third baseman joins four other Astros on the list and there is no confirmed report as to whether Bregman has tested positive for COVID-19. Bregman does not have to sit for a minimum amount of days and can return to the field if he tests negative. This could have him in line to return to the lineup on Friday but fantasy teams need to prepare to play the Friday slate without him. The 27-year-old battled a hamstring injury during Spring Training but is slugging .486 with six extra-base hits through his first 35 at-bats this season.
Houston Astros third baseman Alex Bregman (hamstring) said he still doesn't feel like his legs are fully underneath him early in the season after he dealt with hamstring problems last year and in spring training. He missed the first two weeks of Grapefruit League games, and manager Dusty Baker has held Bregman out of the lineup twice in the first 10 games of the season. However, he feels as though he's trending in the right direction and hasn't had any setbacks. Normally a slow starter with the bat, Bregman entered Tuesday's game in an 0-for-12 slump that dropped his average to .281. It's worth noting for the 27-year-old, but fantasy managers should be encouraged with the fact that the All-Star third baseman is slowly feeling better early this year.
Houston Astros third baseman Alex Bregman (leg) is out of Saturday's lineup with soreness in his legs, according to Brian McTaggart of MLB.com. Bregman dealt with a hamstring injury throughout Spring Training, and the team has been taking things slow with him to start the year. Holding Bregman out Saturday gives him two days to rest up, as the team is off on Sunday. Bregman has looked great so far, hitting 9-for-29 with two home runs and six RBI in seven games. Managers should expect Bregman to be back in the lineup on Monday, but it seems like this could be a continuing issue with Bregman early on.

Houston Astros third baseman Alex Bregman was one of the biggest fantasy busts of 2020. Over 42 games last year, he slashed .242/.350/.451 with only six home runs, 22 RBI, and 19 runs. He was a consensus top-10 pick going into 2020 and now he's fallen outside of the top 30 in many preseason rankings. Bregman wasn't making the hard contact we're used to seeing from him last year. He saw his hard-hit rate drop from 38% in 2019 to 33.6% last year while his barrel rate took a dip from 4.8% in 2019 to 3.9% last year. He maintained his solid plate discipline in 2020 with a 14.4% strikeout rate and a 13.3% walk rate. Yet those clips were still inferior plate discipline numbers to 2019 when he had a 12% strikeout rate and a 17.2% walk rate. Bregman has shown some streaky play throughout his career and if we had a full 162-game season in 2020, we likely would have seen the best version of Bregman emerge through an extended stretch at some point. He showed his downside risk in 2020, but don't forget the upside potential he possesses. He's just a year removed from an MVP-caliber 2019 campaign in which he slashed .296/.423/.592 with 41 home runs, 112 RBI and 122 runs. Bregman is a great target in the third round or later. While he may be streaky and fail to reach his gaudy 2019 numbers, the upside potential is a player who can return a mid-first round value.
