Bo Bichette Returns To Kick Off The Second Half
3 months agoToronto Blue Jays shortstop Bo Bichette (calf) is back at shortstop and is hitting fifth in the batting order on Friday in the first game of the second half of the season versus the visiting Detroit Tigers and right-hander Jack Flaherty. Fantasy managers have to be happy to see Bichette back in action after he missed the final four games of the first half due to a right-calf strain. After a terrible first half, hopefully the 26-year-old will be able to turn things around in the second half, although it will be a tough first matchup in his return. Bichette does have a .400 average with a .900 OPS against Flaherty in his career, but only in five at-bats. The former second-round pick in 2016 was one of the biggest disappointments in the first half for fantasy managers, hitting just .222/.275/.321 with four homers, 30 RBI and five stolen bases in 302 at-bats.
