Bo Bichette: Declines qualifying offer
Bo Bichette rejected the Blue Jays' one-year, $22.025 million qualifying offer Tuesday, Alden Gonzalez of ESPN.com reports.It was a foregone conclusion that Bichette would pass on the qualifying offer, but extending it means the Blue Jays will net a draft pick if the infielder departs in free agency. Bichette's market will be robust after he slashed .311/.357/.483 with 18 home runs and 94 RBI over 139 regular-season games for Toronto in 2025.

Blue Jays' Bo Bichette: Belts big World Series homer
Bo Bichette went 2-for-4 with a three-run home run and a walk against the Dodgers on Saturday in an extra-innings loss in Game 7 of the World Series.Bichette put the Toronto Blue Jays on the board with a three-run home run off Shohei Ohtani in the third inning. For much of the game it looked like that would be the knockout blow en route to a Toronto championship, but Los Angeles staged a late comeback and ultimately pulled off the victory in 11 innings. Bichette missed seven weeks coming into the World Series due to a knee injury, but he was included on the World Series roster and started six of the seven games. He didn't show any rust, batting .348 with the home run, six RBI, two runs and four walks over 27 plate appearances.

Blue Jays' Bo Bichette: Will return to lineup for Game 3
Toronto Blue Jays manager John Schneider said Sunday that Bo Bichette will start at second base in Game 3 of the World Series on Monday, Arden Zwelling of Sportsnet.ca reports.After starting Game 1 and reaching base twice on a single and a walk, Bichette was held out of the lineup in Game 2 (though he did receive one plate appearance off the bench). He'll return to second base for Game 3 as the series moves to Los Angeles and will likely serve as the Blue Jays' cleanup hitter.

Blue Jays' Bo Bichette: Playing second base, batting fourth
Bo Bichette will start at second base and hit cleanup in Friday's World Series Game 1 against the Dodgers.Bichette has never played second base at the major-league level, having last seen action at the position in 2019 at Triple-A Buffalo. It's a big ask for him to start at the keystone in Game 1 of the World Series, particularly after he missed the past seven weeks with a PCL sprain in his left knee. However, the Toronto Blue Jays are willing to roll the dice in order to get Bichette's bat into the lineup and keep George Springer at designated hitter, where he's thrived.

Blue Jays' Bo Bichette: Included on World Series roster
Bo Bichette (knee) is on the Toronto Blue Jays' World Series roster.Bichette has been shelved for the past seven weeks while recovering from a PCL sprain in his left knee, but he's ramped up his workouts lately and has progressed enough to be added to Toronto's roster for the Fall Classic. The Blue Jays have not revealed what the plan is for Bichette's role, but with Andres Gimenez expected to remain at shortstop, Bichette is likely to handle second base, serve as the designated hitter or perhaps be a bat off the bench.

Blue Jays' Bo Bichette: DH, 2B, SS all possible
Toronto Blue Jays manager John Schneider said Thursday that designated hitter, shortstop and second base are all on the table as spots for Bo Bichette (knee) if he is on the World Series roster, Arden Zwelling of Sportsnet.ca reports.Schneider stopped short of confirming Bichette will be on the roster following a seven-week absence with a PCL sprain in his left knee. However, Bichette will go through another full workout Thursday, and as long as he gets through that with no issues, all signs point to him suiting up for the Fall Classic. Where and how much Bichette plays is up in the air, but Andres Gimenez is expected to stay at shortstop. Bichette hasn't been used at second base in the majors, but he "looked more than comfortable" when he played the position in the minors, per Schneider, and it seems there's a good chance he'll handle the keystone in the World Series. The Blue Jays and Dodgers must set their World Series rosters by Friday morning.

Blue Jays' Bo Bichette: Works out at second base Wednesday
Bo Bichette (knee) took grounders at second base during a workout at Rogers Centre on Wednesday, Ben Nicholson-Smith of Sportsnet.ca reports.It's unclear whether the Toronto Blue Jays are considering using Bichette as their regular second baseman during the World Series or if they're merely evaluating their options. The 27-year-old hasn't played a position other than shortstop at the big-league level, and the extent of his experience at second base has been 30 games in the minors, the last of which came in 2019. Bichette does appear locked into a spot on the Blue Jays' World Series roster after missing the past seven weeks with a PCL sprain in his left knee, but how he'll be used remains a mystery. Andres Gimenez is expected to stay at shortstop, and Toronto is likely hesitant to move George Springer from designated hitter to the outfield, given how well he's hit. If the team is comfortable using Bichette at second base, it would shift Ernie Clement to third base and Addison Barger to the outfield.
