Bo Bichette To Start Running In A Few Days
4 months agoThe Toronto Blue Jays expect shortstop Bo Bichette (calf) to start running in the next two to three days, according to manager John Schneider. Bichette is already doing some hitting and defensive drills at the team's spring training complex in Dunedin, Fla. Once the 26-year-old is able to run the bases successfully, he's likely to be sent out on a minor-league rehab assignment. Calf issues have slowed Bichette down this year, and he's been on the 10-day injured list since late July. He should have a good chance of returning to the Blue Jays before the end of August, though, barring a setback once he begins running or on his rehab assignment. Since his injury, Leo Jimenez has been the team's light-hitting replacement for Bichette at the 6. Bitchette himself has been one of the biggest disappointments in 2024 in all of baseball, hitting .223 (68-for-305) with only four homers, 30 RBI and five stolen bases.
