Bregman went 2-for-2 with a solo home run, two walks and three runs scored in Thursday's victory over the Angels.
EDGE Analysis
Bregman was a nuisance to Angels pitchers all night, scoring in the first, third and fifth innings while reaching base in all four plate appearances. He belted a 408-foot solo shot off Matt Harvey in the fifth inning to reach 25 home runs on the season. With the impressive performance, the 25-year-old is now slashing .271/.403/.541 with 70 runs scored and 61 RBI in 340 at-bats this season. Perhaps most impressively, he has taken 76 walks while striking out only 56 times.

Bregman (head) is not in the lineup for Friday's game at Texas since he is still being evaluated for a head injury, Hunter Atkins of the Houston Chronicle reports.
EDGE Analysis
Bregman had a tough hop hit him square in the chin Thursday, causing him to exit the contest and receive four stitches. It sounds as though the 24-year-old is being evaluated for a potential concussion, which would be much more worrisome than the chin laceration. Bregman should be considered day-to-day until more is known about the injury.

Bregman received four stitches on his chin after exiting Thursday night's game against Texas, and his status for Friday's contest is unclear, Hunter Atkins of the Houston Chronicle reports.
EDGE Analysis
Bregman was the victim of a tough hop on a groundball to third base, and he had to leave Thursday's contest in the third inning as a result. His availability for Friday's matchup should become more clear closer to first pitch.
