Alex Bregman Seeking New Representation
May 19th, 2020 at 3:00pm CST • By Jeff Todd
3:00pm: Chandler Rome of the Houston Chronicle points out that Bregman’s departure from Klutch coincides with last week’s announcement that Uninterrupted, a film production company co-founded by fellow Klutch client LeBron James, is creating a documentary exploring the Astros’ sign-stealing scandal in 2017. Bleacher Report’s Tyler Conway has more on the forthcoming docuseries.
12:56pm: Star Astros third baseman Alex Bregman is seeking new representation, according to MLB.com’s Mark Feinsand (via Twitter). Once a change is made, it’ll be reflected in MLBTR’s Agency Database.
This is an interesting move for a variety of reasons (no, not related to trashcan-banging schemes). For one thing, while player movement between agencies is hardly unusual, it’s rare that we see reporting of a “free agent” in search of a new rep.
Bregman is not just any ballplayer, either. The 26-year-old has just kept improving and was undeniably one of the best in the sport in 2019.
Other teams won’t have a chance to lure the Houston stalwart for some time. Bregman is under contract through 2024 under the deal worked out by his now-former agent, Brodie Scoffield, which covered five seasons (beginning in 2020) and guaranteed $100MM. At the time of the pact, Scoffield had recently left the Legacy Agency to form his own outfit, Tidal Sports Group. He brought Bregman and other major clients with him. Legacy was later acquired by GSE Worldwide.
Bregman was the crown jewel of the client list when hoops powerhouse Klutch Sports bought Tidal earlier this year, although there’s been a good bit of turmoil surrounding that firm in recent weeks. MLB Network’s Jon Heyman tweeted recently that an arbitrator ruled Klutch/Scoffield will be required to split agent fees 50-50 with GSE for not only Bregman but other clients including Marcus Stroman, Kevin Gausman and Keston Hiura over the next five years.

Pretty sure he’s a minority investor in Lebron’s company that’s making the documentary

If Bregman didn't cheat why is he worried about someone making this documentary

I honestly had no idea that Klutch even had a baseball division. I thought they just represented basketball and football players.

Anyone dumb enough to sign with a guy who LeBron made his agent just because he liked the fake throwback jerseys he sold in the airport should probably know the operation ain't gonna be very top notch in integrity.

It’s funny you mention the Astros legend. He’s on ESPN right now. Game 6, 2011 WS. What a great game.

The gumption of LeBron to make a documentary about someone cheating in their sport.

What next? East German powerlifters financing a documentary about steroid usage in MLB in the 90s?

A funny point but Bregman never signed with Klutch

Smart move by bregs get a legit agent. Who would stay with someone that accuses you or your team of cheating?
