Bregman missed Wednesday's workout due to a delay in the processing of his COVID-19 test results, Chandler Rome of the Houston Chronicle reports.
EDGE Analysis
Bregman is reportedly "fine" according to Rome, though the test result is "required" before he can join the Astros for workouts. So long as Bregman's test comes back negative, he should be back with the team sometime later in the week.

Bregman has been battling an illness but is expected to return to game action Tuesday, Chandler Rome of the Houston Chronicle reports.
EDGE Analysis
The 25-year-old remains with the team and is working out at the facility Sunday, so the illness appears to be a minor concern. The illness shouldn't have any impact on Bregman's preparations for Opening Day.

Bregman said Monday that he trimmed down from 215 pounds to 195 this offseason with a focus on increasing his mobility, Brian McTaggart of MLB.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Perhaps in part due to the heftier build, Bregman saw his stolen bases fall for a second straight season, dropping from 10 in 2018 to only five in 2019. The strength of the Astros' lineup from top to bottom should again put a natural limit on Bregman's running opportunities, but even a modest bounce back in steals would help compensate for some expected regression in the power department after he clubbed a career-high 41 home runs last season. Though his role in the Astros' sign-stealing scandal has made Bregman a controversial figure this winter, his well-rounded profile still makes him a comfortable top-two-round selection in fantasy.

Bregman went 2-for-4 with a solo home run in a 7-2 loss to Washington in Game 6 of the World Series on Tuesday.
EDGE Analysis
Bregman's homer in the first inning staked the Astros to a 2-1 lead and was his third long ball of the World Series. He also reached on an infield single in the sixth inning. The 25-year-old has had multi-hit efforts in two of the last three games but is still hitting just .231 (6-for-26) in the World Series.

Bregman went 1-for-4 with a two-run home run Wednesday in a 12-3 loss to Washington in Game 2 of the World Series.
EDGE Analysis
Bregman rocked a 411-foot blast off of Washington starter Stephen Strasburg in the first inning to tie the game 2-2. He also made a pair of defensive mistakes in the seventh inning, the first of which was a misplay of a fairly routine groundball that seemed to open the floodgates with Washington leading 4-2 at the time. Bregman is hitting .232 in this postseason with a pair of home runs.

Bregman is up to 41 homers for the year, including six in his last 11 games. The third baseman has added 111 RBI and 120 runs scored in 154 games this season while producing a .296/.421/.595 triple-slash line in what has been a career year.

Bregman went 2-for-4 with a solo home run in the Astros' 3-0 victory over the Mariners on Tuesday.
EDGE Analysis
That's now 40 homers on the season for Bregman, extending his career high in what has been another phenomenal campaign at the dish for the 25-year-old. In addition to the gaudy long ball total, Bregman sports an elite .297/.420/.593 slash line in 152 games.

Bregman went 1-for-2 with a three-run home run and a walk Monday in the Astros' 15-0 win over the Athletics.
EDGE Analysis
Bregman turned in one of the more muted box-score lines among Houston hitters in the 21-1 victory over the Mariners on Sunday, but he played a more prominent part in the Astros' second straight blowout win. His 35th home run of the season was one of seven the Astros slugged on the night, with five of those coming off Oakland starter Mike Fiers. Dating back to the beginning of August, Bregman is slashing .414/.497/.781 in 151 plate appearances, with his 235 wRC+ over that stretch, leading all qualified hitters in the majors.
