This round it’s Alex Bergman.
He finished 2nd in MVP voting in 2019 and just hasn’t been able to replicate that season again.
With all due respect your honor, that just can’t something that happens.
No GM in their right mind would agree to that deal, there’s just no way.
Ask Jordan Montgomery how that worked out!
All the projections are 5/$150, 6/$180, something along those lines.
Not anything CLOSE to $350 million.
.298/32/102 for Manny and Bergman is coming off a season of .260/26/75.
The defense is still there for Bregman, he took home his first Gold Glove this season.
But in no way is he deserving of anything close to that extension or money.
He’s been losing his fastball for years and this could be another situation he overthinks.
You’ve got to be crazy to think Bregman gets double digit years, just no way.
Bregman’s deal will be closer to Matt Chapman’s deal than Manny’s.
Boras is fishing for a deal like Lindor and Tatis, that’s a hell of a pipe dream.
Maybe a 4-5 year deal for the declining 30-year old, that $350 number is a willlllld ask.
