Boston's seeming resistance to the free-agent infielder doesn't make a lot of sense for a team that could desperately use him.

Alex Bregman remains one of the few free agents left and he's generating interest from a ton of ball clubs. One of them is the Boston Red Sox, who could use a player of Bregman's experience on their roster. New addition Walker Buehler has even tried to recruit Bregman to sign with the historic franchise.
