Blue Jays manager John Schneider said Monday that Bichette (finger) traveled to Arizona this week to meet with a hand specialist, Scott Mitchell of TSN.ca reports.

Bichette has already been ruled out for the season with a fractured right middle finger, but the consultation with the specialist should help the infielder determine whether or not he'll need surgery to address the injury. Regardless of whether he gets surgery, Bichette should be back to full health in advance of spring training. The 26-year-old is scheduled to become a free agent after the 2025 season and could be a trade candidate this winter, though the Blue Jays may prefer to have Bichette rebuild some value after he posted a career-worst .599 OPS over 336 plate appearances in 2024.
