3B BOS
Bregman went 2-for-4 with a double, a walk and two runs scored in Monday's 8-3 win over the Angels.
EDGE Analysis
Bregman singled and scored in the fourth inning. He then doubled and scored again on Yordan Alvarez's second homer of the game in the seventh. Bregman had been in a 1-for-16 slump over the last five games. He's now batting .265 with six runs scored through 34 at-bats on the year.

3B BOS
Bregman went 0-for-3 with a walk and a strikeout Sunday against the Mariners.
EDGE Analysis
Bregman was hitless for his fourth consecutive game, though he has walked four times across 16 plate appearances in that same span. While it's generally too early to panic about early season slumps, Bregman has also yet to register an extra-base hit on the campaign. Positively, he's striking out at a 14 percent clip -- in line with his career norms -- so hits should start to fill in.

3B BOS
Bregman will sit Saturday against the Angels.
EDGE Analysis
Bregman underwent wrist surgery in November but showed no ill effects in the first two games of the season, going 2-for-4 with a homer in both contests. He won't get the chance to keep that hot streak going in the third game of the year, with the Astros prioritizing managing his workload early in the season. Aledmys Diaz will take over at the hot corner.

3B BOS
Bregman went 2-for-4 with a solo home run and an additional RBI in Friday's 13-6 victory against the Angels.
EDGE Analysis
Bregman launched a solo home run off reliever Oliver Ortega to provide a valuable insurance run in the sixth inning and later contributed to an eight-run seventh. The 28-year-old now has homers in consecutive games to start the season and looks to return to his 2019 MVP contender form after two subpar seasons.

Bregman went 2-for-4 with a solo home run and two RBI on Thursday against the Angels.
EDGE Analysis
Bregman was responsible for driving in Houston's first run of the season when he delivered a single to score Michael Brantley in the third inning. He then homered in the top of the eighth frame, providing the game-winning run. Bregman was limited to only 91 games in 2021 due a quadriceps injury, though he appears to be fully healthy for the new campaign with the potential to return to his past form.

Bregman (wrist) is starting at third base and batting cleanup in Wednesday's Grapefruit League game against the Cardinals, Brian McTaggart of MLB.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Bregman underwent surgery on his right wrist in November, and he'll make his first start of spring training Wednesday. The 27-year-old hit .270/.355/.422 with 12 home runs, 54 runs and 55 RBI in 91 games last season, but he struggled over the final couple weeks of the regular season and had a .604 OPS during the playoffs. It's unclear exactly how much the wrist issue affected his production, but Bregman is now healthy entering 2022 with a chance for a rebound campaign.

3B BOS
Bregman underwent surgery on his right wrist surgery Monday, Chandler Rome of the Houston Chronicle reports.
EDGE Analysis
Bregman is expected to resume baseball activities in January, leaving him ready for the start of spring training as long as he avoids setbacks. The Astros will hope that Bregman's wrist troubles explain his poor performance late in the year, as he fell off down the stretch before posting a poor .604 OPS in the playoffs. Bregman has now hit a merely good .261/.353/.431 over the last two seasons, a far cry from the .296/.423/.592 line he managed in 2019.

Bregman went 1-for-4 with a solo homer, two runs and a walk in Tuesday's win over the Red Sox in Game 4 of the ALCS.
EDGE Analysis
Bregman went hitless in four at-bats Monday, but he bounced back with his first home run of the postseason in Tuesday's victory. The 27-year-old has started each of the first eight playoff games for the Astros and has slashed .281/.343/.406 with a home run, a double, six runs and five RBI during that time.
