Discussion among analysts, such as Alex and Ryan from Fireside Yankees, posits various ways to approach Bregman. They suggest that a shorter-term deal—perhaps a four- or five-year contract with an opt-out after a couple of years—might make sense both for the Yankees and Bregman. Such an arrangement could reduce immediate financial pressure, allowing the Yankees to navigate their luxury tax considerations while still landing a top-tier player.
