The Toronto Blue Jays have emerged as -230 favorites on FanDuel to re-sign star shortstop Bo Bichette, reflecting a 69.7% implied probability. Despite the intense focus on the World Series run, the team's attention now shifts toward securing Bichette’s future with the club.
Since his debut seven years ago, Bichette has established himself as one of the most formidable offensive shortstops in Major League Baseball. This year, even after missing the last month of the regular season due to a left knee injury, he delivered one of his strongest performances.
He returned for Game 1 of the World Series and hit .348 with six RBIs during the seven-game series.
“I’ve said I want to be here from the beginning,” Bichette said following the Blue Jays’ Game 7 loss.
This offseason represents a pivotal moment, especially after long-time teammate Vladimir Guerrero Jr. secured a 14-year, $500 million extension earlier in the year. Now, Bichette is poised to enter free agency and potentially follow suit.
Bo Bichette stands as a key figure in the Blue Jays’ future, with strong on-field performance and clear intent to stay fueling anticipation for his contract extension.
