There’s also no indication that this is anything serious or will interfere with what Bregman can do for the rest of his career, so the next thing to take from what Boras said is that the star third baseman will ready for spring training.

But which camp will he be in?

The Astros certainly hope he is, but that remains to be seen as both sides continue to engage in contract negotiations.
