The Detroit Tigers reportedly have competition from the Houston Astros, Alex Bregman's former team, in the pursuit for the free agent third baseman.

It has been a relatively quiet offseason for the Detroit Tigers so far, but they recently made a nice addition to their bullpen. The Tigers were able to end up having an excellent campaign in 2024, which resulted in them snapping a lengthy playoff drought.

By helping the Astros unload the contract, the Tigers might have hurt their own chances to sign third baseman Alex Bregman, the top free-agent hitter still on the market. The Pressly trade has only fueled speculation that the Astros are positioning their payroll for a last-ditch effort to retain their fan-favorite star.

Kahnle, 35, has been a model of consistency the last three seasons, posting 2.44 ERA and a 1.063 WHIP combined with the Dodgers and the Yankees.

Will the Detroit Tigers land Alex Bregman? That's the question this fan base has been wondering throughout the winter with this team being linked to the star third baseman since the offseason began. It's been a winding process.

Months later, Bregman remains unsigned, and a resolution with his free agency does not appear any closer. Among the teams that have been linked to Bregman in reports include the Chicago Cubs, Boston Red Sox and Detroit Tigers. But the reality is that none of the teams listed are close to signing the All-Star infielder.

If Houston brought Bregman back, it would create a crowded situation in the infield. They traded outfielder Kyle Tucker to the Cubs in exchange for infielder Isaac Paredes before signing free agent first baseman Christian Walker this offseason.

According to a source, Houston Astros third baseman Alex Bregman has very low odds of re-signing with the Houston MLB team after 9 seasons.

Detroit Tigers left-hander Tarik Skubal, the reigning AL Cy Young winner, knows the Tigers are interested in signing third baseman Alex Bregman.
