Bo Bichette Back In Action Against Mariners
5 months agoToronto Blue Jays shortstop Bo Bichette (forearm) is back at shortstop and is batting second on Friday against the hosting Seattle Mariners and right-hander Luis Castillo. The Mariners held Bichette out of Thursday's series finale against the Houston Astros as a precaution after he was hit by a pitch on Wednesday. The 26-year-old will return after missing just one game. Fantasy managers are hoping that the former second-rounder in 2016 out of a Florida high school can finally put together a good stretch of at-bats as we near the All-Star break in mid-July. It's been a highly disappointing 2024 campaign for the All-Star, as he enters Friday's action with a .229/.282/.331 slash line, only four home runs, 29 RBI, four steals and 28 runs scored in 284 at-bats. Bichette has also hit just .222 with an RBI in nine career at-bats versus Castillo.
