Bregman went 3-for-5 with a grand slam, a walk and three total runs scored in Thursday's 14-0 win over the Cardinals.
EDGE Analysis
Bregman's slam came off position player Alec Burleson in the ninth inning. This was Bregman's second grand slam in a span of five games. The third baseman has hit safely in eight of his last 10 contests, going 15-for-42 (.357) with three homers and 14 RBI in that span. Outside of brief slumps in early May and mid-June, he's done well at the plate over the last two months. Bregman owns a .251/.346/.412 slash line with 12 homers, 53 RBI, 47 runs scored and three stolen bases through 80 contests this season. While his improving, his .758 OPS remains the lowest of his career, though he has plenty of time to get back to his established level.

Bregman went 2-for-5 with a grand slam home run and a double in a loss to the Dodgers on Saturday.
EDGE Analysis
Bregman served up the biggest blow in Houston's five-run fifth inning when he belted a grand slam to left field off rookie hurler Bobby Miller. It was his second homer in his past four contests and extended a hot six-game stretch during which the third baseman has slashed .417/.481/.833 with two long balls, nine RBI and a stolen base. Bregman's .249/.344/.410 slash line on the season remains subpar by his standards, but he's showing signs of heating up.

Bregman went 3-for-5 with two runs scored, two RBI and a stolen base in Wednesday's 10-8 win over the Mets.
EDGE Analysis
The third baseman has snapped out of a brief 2-for-22 slump with eight hits in the last four games. Bregman's .740 OPS on the year would be a career worst, but he's been mostly productive over the last month, slashing .301/.368/.476 over his last 26 games with four homers, two steals, 13 runs and 21 RBI.

Bregman went 1-for-4 with a two-run home run Tuesday against the Mets.
EDGE Analysis
Bregman took former teammate Justin Verlander deep in the third inning to tally his 10th homer of the season. It was his fourth long ball in his last 20 starts, a span during which he's maintained a .352 on-base percentage and .468 slugging percentage. Though it's a small sample, he's shown signs of breaking out of his slow start to the campaign.

Bregman went 3-for-5 with a double, a triple, a walk, an RBI and two runs scored Sunday against the Reds.
EDGE Analysis
Bregman entered Sunday's game hitless in five of his previous six games, but he delivered his first multi-extra-base hit performance since May 17. His power production is down -- his .387 slugging percentage would be his lowest in a season by 35 points -- but he's still managed to tally 40 RBI and 39 runs scored across 71 games on the campaign.

Bregman went 0-for-3 with a walk and a stolen base Saturday against the Reds.
EDGE Analysis
Bregman swiped his second base of the season, his lone bright spot in the game. He's scuffled since the calendar flipped to June, as he has only 11 hits across 57 at-bats. On the other hand, Bregman has struck out only 13 times in that span, so there is some hope that he'll turn things around.

Bregman went 1-for-4 with a solo home run, his ninth long ball of the season, in Thursday's loss to the Blue Jays.
EDGE Analysis
Bregman has been red hot of late, as he has hits in 13 of his last 14 games with three homers, 14 RBI and a .358 (19-for-53) batting average over that stretch. Fantasy managers can only hope that it's not a mirage, as the third baseman has had a pedestrian campaign by his standards. Although it's still early, his .403 SLG and .751 OPS would be the lowest marks of his career.

Bregman is out of the lineup Wednesday versus the Blue Jays.
EDGE Analysis
Bregman will take some physical and mental rest after going 0-for-4 with three strikeouts in the Astros' loss to the Jays on Tuesday. Grae Kessinger is playing third base and batting ninth Wednesday.

Bregman went 1-for-1 with a grand slam in Saturday's 9-6 win against the Angels.
EDGE Analysis
Los Angeles pitchers didn't give Bregman much of a chance to swing the bat as 16 of the 17 pitches thrown to him on his four walks were out of the strike zone, but he maximized his production on the one ball he put into play, blasting a grand slam to left field in the fourth inning. Per Danielle Lerner of the Houston Chronicle, this was the second time in Bregman's career that he has drawn four walks in one game, and the grand slam was his fifth as a major-leaguer. The third baseman is swinging a hot bat, compiling a 10-game hitting streak during which he is batting .417 (15-for-36) with two homers, 13 RBI and a 6:4 BB:K.
