Cubs third baseman Alex Bregman was hit by a foul ball in the on deck circle yesterday. Today, Jeff Passan of ESPN reports that Bregman suffered multiple facial fractures. He will not undergo surgery and is hoping to return during the postseason.
Bregman was in the on deck circle yesterday when a ball off the bat of Michael Busch struck him in the face. After the game, manager Craig Counsell said Bregman had a bloody nose and a lot of swelling and would be going for more testing at a hospital.
It appears that testing found some fractures. That’s obviously a concerning development, given Bregman’s importance to the club. He has 26 home runs, a .262/.352/.452 line and 124 wRC+. Thanks to his great third base defense, he has been credited with 5.2 wins above replacement on the year.
His teammate Pete Crow-Armstrong has stolen the spotlight but Bregman has somewhat quietly been one of the better players in the league this year. Bregman’s fWAR tally is fifth in the National League, behind Crow-Armstrong, Elly De La Cruz, Otto Lopez and Brice Turang. Bregman has been even better lately, as he hit .241/.336/.359 in the first half and has a massive .296/.378/.600 line in the second half.
More to come.
