Alex Bregman Next Team Odds: Where Will He Play In 2026?
Promo Code: BOOKIESBG150
Third baseman Alex Bregman had a strong first season for the Boston Red Sox, making the All-Star team and helping lead the Red Sox back to the playoffs. However, Bregman's three-year deal with the Red Sox contains an opt-out clause, and after a strong season at the plate and with the glove, Bregman is fully expected to exercise his right to test the free agency market once again. If that is the case, he will be one of the top free agents available this winter.
With Bregman expected to test free agency once again, Bookies.com veteran MLB odds maker Adam Thompson has put together hypothetical betting odds for which team Bregman could play for in 2026.
Alex Bregman 2026 Team Odds
| Team | Odds | Percentage |
|---|---|---|
| Boston Red Sox | +250 | 28.6% |

| New York Mets | +650 | 13.3% |

Top Contenders For Alex Bregman In Free Agency 2026
Should Bregman opt out of his contract with the Red Sox as expected, here are some of the top contenders for his services.
First, a return to the Boston Red Sox seems more likely than him leaving the team, with the Red Sox leading the chase to sign him. Bregman proved to be a terrific fit for Boston when he was healthy, as he made the All-Star team this season for the third time in his career. The Red Sox love his bat and his Gold Glove, and will likely make him a generous contract offer to return.
The Chicago Cubs were rumored to be interested in Bregman last season before he signed with the Red Sox. The Cubs have rookie Matt Shaw at third base right now, but while Shaw had a solid rookie season overall, he had a below-average bat this year, and Bregman would be an upgrade for a Cubs team that is looking to win the World Series.
The Los Angeles Angels got decent production out of Yoan Moncada, but there is no doubt Bregman would be a massive upgrade with both his bat and his glove. The Angels haven't made the playoffs in over a decade and are expected to be buyers in free agency this winter.
Speaking of missing the playoffs, the New York Mets also missed the postseason despite having a monster payroll. We know that Mets owner Steve Cohen is willing to spend in free agency, so it would make sense for the Mets to sign another big bat, such as Bregman, to help the team out.
The Detroit Tigers are one of the best teams in MLB, but they can always upgrade. They were one of the finalists last year to sign Bregman before he went to the Red Sox, and it's expected they will give his agent a call this offseason to see if he is willing to help take their team over the top.

The San Francisco Giants already have Gold Glove player Matt Chapman at third base, but they could potentially sign Bregman and move him to another position. They missed the playoffs this year and are expected to make some big moves in free agency.
The Toronto Blue Jays are one of baseball's best teams, but Bregman would be an upgrade over Addison Barger at third base. Still, they are a long shot to sign him.
Similarly, while the Cleveland Guardians could use Bregman as an upgrade at the hot corner, they are also a long shot to sign him due to not having much payroll space to work with.
Of course, The Field is always a viable option, as all teams could use a player like Bregman on their squad.
