After NESN posted the video on X/Twitter, Anthony gave credit to Bregman for his performance.

“It’s huge. You know, he’s like a coach in there right now. He’s awesome. And he’s such a great baseball brain,” Anthony said. “He’s been such a huge help to me since spring training… helping me game plan, helping me go in there with a plan every day. He’s got so much knowledge and has helped each and every one of us.”

Alex Bregman on his return date: "Trending toward a return here really quickly, whether it's the end of this week or the first game after the break. One of those two. But hoping it will be the end of this week."

Alex Bregman’s return is fast approaching, but he will not participate in the 2025 All-Star Game. In his place, he is replaced by Tampa Bay’s Junior Caminero, a rising star of the American League roster, marking his debut first All-Star selection.

"Junior Caminero is a first-time All-Star! He replaces Alex Bregman on the AL's active roster."

Rookie Caminero has been showing powerful performances this season with 21 home runs and 57 RBIs across 85 games. In contrast, Bregman played 51 games before the injury, averaging .299 with 11 home runs and 35 RBIs.
