Blue Jays manager John Schneider said Friday that Bichette (calf) is "progressing well," and the club is hoping he can resume baseball activities within the next week, MLB.com reports.
Bichette is closing in on the one-month mark in his recovery from a moderate right calf strain, and though he seems to be healing as anticipated, he hasn't demonstrated much in the way of tangible progress in the recovery process. The Blue Jays haven't provided a timeline for Bichette's return from the shelf, but since he hasn't resumed baseball activities and will eventually need to complete a minor-league rehab assignment before being activated, he wouldn't seem likely to rejoin the Toronto lineup until at least late August.
