Multiple MLB insiders give Red Sox edge over Yankees, Astros in Alex Bregman sweepstakes

The latest on Red Sox’ reported pursuit of Alex Bregman: Craig Breslow wants the Red Sox to add another right-handed hitter this offseason. Well, it appears they’re positioning themselves in a good spot to get the top right-handed hitter in free agency, at least in comparison to their top rival.

The Red Sox are viewed as a stronger fit to land Bregman than the Yankees at this point, according to MLB Network’s Jon Morosi.

“If you look at the landscape of potential fits for Bregman — Boston, yes, is a fit at second base or third, depending on how the infield is arranged,” Morosi said on MLB Network.
