Bregman, 22, is batting .314/.411/.596 with 13 home runs, 42 RBI and four steals through 49 games for Double-A Corpus Christi.

With Carlos Correa (ankle) nursing a minor ailment, many clamored for Bregman to receive a promotion to briefly take Correa's place. The more likely scenario, though, is that Bregman slides over to third base, as he has been playing there in recent weeks. With the hot corner continuing to provide little pop for the Astros, Bregman may see the bigs in short order.
