Longtime Houston Astros third baseman Alex Bregman had a bone spur removed from his right elbow, agent Scott Boras confirmed Wednesday.
The 30-year-old free agent dealt with the issue late in the season. Bregman is expected to resume hitting within a few weeks, according to Boras.
Astros general manager Dana Brown said Tuesday that re-signing the two-time All-Star and two-time World Series champion is the team’s No. 1 priority this offseason. Brown said the conversations with Boras have been “productive” but they are “still in the beginning stages,” per the Houston Chronicle.
Bregman batted .260 with 26 homers and 75 RBIs in 145 games in 2024, his ninth season with the Astros. His .768 OPS was the lowest of his career, however he did win his first Gold Glove.
Drafted No. 2 overall by Houston in 2015, Bregman is a career .272/.366/.483 hitter with 191 home runs and 663 RBIs in 1,111 games. He was an All-Star in 2018 and 2019 and won World Series rings in 2017 and 2022.
