With Spring Training just around the corner, Alex Bregman is feeling the excitement of the 2023 season, with momentum on his side, both on the field and in his personal life. You may recall that on November 5, during the victory against the Phillies in Game 6 of the World Series, Bregman shattered his left index finger. However, he was able to resume swinging the bat at the beginning of January.
Bregman has now provided the loyal Astros fans with a positive message, stating that his finger has fully recovered and that he can’t wait to take the field for spring training.
Without a doubt, Alex has been a paramount figure on the Astros’ roster alongside Jose Altuve, who has long been loyal to the ballclub and has helped the franchise through some of its darkest times. Fans realized the importance of their third baseman, which is why hearing the news of his finger being completely healed left them ecstatic.

In his offbeat interview, Bregman claimed that he feels positive going into the 2023 season and that he is regaining strength in his swing.
In each of Alex Bregman’s six seasons in the Major Leagues, the Astros have advanced to the ALCS while winning four pennants and two World Series. He has only ever known success in the major leagues. It shouldn’t come as a surprise that there is a lot of anticipation for the 2023 season, in which Houston is certain to win another pennant.
