Starting 9 Episode 15: Alex Bregman
On Episode 15 of Starting 9, we’ve got World Series champion third baseman Alex Bregman on with us to talk about what he’s been up to since the Astros won, how he had no idea that Justin Verlander was under contract for two more years, if he thought he’d win a World Series with the Astros knowing that he was drafted as a shortstop and Houston already had Carlos Correa, his infamous DM exchange with a fan, his walk-off hit in the World Series, pitchers tipping their pitches, how he thinks Alex Cora will fare as manager of the Boston Red Sox and more.
Other topics discussed — Reaction to the passing of Roy Halladay, JD Martinez’s asking price as a free agent, Scott Boras being the GOAT of baseball agents, baseball award season, Masahiro Tanaka and Johnny Cueto opting in to their contracts, the Cubs/Giants trade rumors involving Jason Heyward, Jeff Samardzija and Mark Melancon, and Aaron Judge being on the cover of MLB The Show next year.
