The article discusses the humorous yet regretful memory from 2012 when Alex Bregman was drafted by the Boston Red Sox in the 29th round. A mix-up in pronunciation during the announcement led to a longstanding joke among the scouting team. Fred Petersen recalls the moment, and while there was a miscommunication regarding Bregman's name, the truth remains that the Red Sox ultimately could not afford to sign him, which significantly impacted their prospects.
I just misread the card. Bregman, in a text, said he was not aware of Petersen's miscue.
Ami said... that when he called Bregman to congratulate him, Alex was all pissed off. I can't believe guys would mispronounce my name.
