Alex Bregman has signed a $120 million deal with the Boston Red Sox. Manager Alex Cora and former Mets GM Jim Duquette both praised Bregman's fit with the team, while Ben Verlander critiqued the decision.

After news broke that former Houston Astros third baseman Alex Bregman had agreed to a contract with the Boston Red Sox late Wednesday night, players showed up to the Red Sox’s Fort Myers, Florida spring training facility Thursday morning energized about the addition of the team.

Alex Cora addressed sign-stealing topic again, taking responsibility and saying, “We made a mistake in ’17, and some of us paid the price."
