2024 Fantasy Outlook
Bichette has been a model of consistency since debuting for the Blue Jays in 2019, and his .306/.339/.475 slash line in 2023 closely resembles his career line. His counting stats (20 homers, 73 RBI and five steals) took a bit of a hit as he spent time on the injured list with knee and quadriceps issues during the second half, though he still played in 135 games overall. Bichette's barrel rate remained stable at 9.6 percent, though he boosted his line-drive rate seven points to 27.4 percent to help maintain a .355 BABIP, which should be sustainable since it's only slightly higher than his career average. He recorded 38 steals over the 2021-22 campaigns, so it's surprising he stayed in single digits in 2023 given the rule changes that boosted totals league-wide. The two leg injuries likely played a role in the production drop, but he still had just three steals in 90 games heading into the All-Star break. Regardless of the stolen base total, Bichette has established a strong fantasy floor with a high average and reliable run production heading into his age-26 campaign. Read Past Outlooks
Beginning rehab assignment Tuesday
Blue Jays manager John Schneider said Friday that Bichette (calf) is expected to join Triple-A Buffalo on Tuesday to begin a rehab assignment, Shi Davidi of Sportsnet.ca reports.
ANALYSIS
Bichette is expected to need 4-to-5 games with the affiliate before he's cleared to return from the 10-day injured list. Sidelined since mid-July with a right calf strain, Bichette has been able to run the bases several times this week and will remain with the Blue Jays in Atlanta through the weekend. He's in the midst of a down season with a .222/.275/.320 slash line through 80 games, and there are questions about his future in Toronto.

Stat Review
How does Bo Bichette compare to other hitters?
This section compares his stats with all batting seasons from the previous three seasons (minimum 400 plate appearances)*. The bar represents the player's percentile rank. For example, if the bar is halfway across, then the player falls into the 50th percentile for that stat and it would be considered average.
* Exit Velocity and Barrels/PA % are benchmarked against 2019 data (min 400 PA) and Hard Hit Rate is benchmarked against last season's data (min 400 PA). See here for more exit velocity/barrels stats plus an explanation of current limitations with that data set.

2017
At the All-Star break, Bichette sat with a .257 average, a .720 OPS and seven steals in 13 attempts. Water eventually finds its level. Bichette cut his strikeouts back down -- 24.3 K percentage in the first half, 19.2 percent in the second half -- and took off to the tune of a .337/.378/.543 line after the intermission. He also improved his efficiency on the basepaths in the second half, going 6-for-8 in steal attempts. In retrospect, those who jumped Bichette into the first half of the first round last spring were a little overzealous, but don't let that disappointment keep you from investing in 2023. There are no questions about Bichette's ability with the bat. If anything, the fact that his sprint speed ranked only mid-pack might be of slight concern.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Wants to stick in Toronto
Bichette, who is on the injured list due to a calf strain, said Monday that his "ultimate goal" is to play with Vladimir Guerrero on the Blue Jays "forever" and win a World Series, reports Shi Davidi of SportsNet.ca.
ANALYSIS
The shortstop's name was floating in trade rumors early in the summer, but he's been sidelined since mid-July due to a calf strain. Bichette is now closing in on his return from the injured list, but the bigger question has always been longer term as he heads into the final year of his contract in 2025. Guerrero is in the same situation, and Toronto is expected to try and ink him to an extension this winter, per Jon Heyman of the New York Post. Despite Bichette's stated goals, an extension is difficult to envision this offseason given his struggles prior to the injury, as he has a .222/.275/.320 slash line with just four homers in 80 games. Bichette's .827 OPS across his first five MLB seasons should still give him plenty of negotiating leverage, but Toronto may be hesitant to pay a premium coming off a career-worst campaign.
