Astros superstar advised to re-sign with Houston on $165 million dealWill the Houston Astros retain one of their biggest stars this winter? This question will continue to pop up until star third baseman Alex Bregman ultimately signs on the dotted line with a team. He has developed into one of the best third basemen in baseball and will get paid like it this winter. He’s projected to get a deal worth $119 million over four years, but a bidding war could drive that price up. It’s too early to know, but Bleacher Report’s Tim Kelly urged the Astros to bring him back to town. “Is there an argument for resetting a bit this offseason, letting Bregman walk, and focusing your resources on trying to re-sign Kyle Tucker and/or Framber Valdez next offseason? Probably,” Kelly said. “But if the Astros want to compete in 2025, it’s hard to imagine walking Bregman walk. The franchise icon overcame a slow start to homer 26 times and drive in 75 runs in his contract year. “For what it’s worth, general manager Dana Brown seemed hopeful when asked about Bregman’s future late in the season. ‘I think it’ll work out,’ Brown said. ‘When you get down to it, I think he wants to stay here. I think we want him to stay here. And it’s just a matter of coming up with some type of an agreement.'” Bregman has developed into an Astros legend. Seeing him playing in another jersey would be difficult. Hopefully, the Astros find a way to get a deal done. If the price tag does end up being $119 million, that certainly is in their range
