Author’s Note: I have seen a few comments concerning why such articles are labeled as HOF Index even when they don’t involve a discussion of the Hall of Fame. Simply put, the index is about a way of systematically looking at questions that allows us to arrive at a more comprehensive answer. I am not arguing Bregman’s Hall of Fame credentials. He is not eligible for the index yet anyway.
We looked at this contract negotiation earlier in the season. With the season nearly done, we have more evidence and a new contract to compare Bregman to.
