Bo Bichette is back in the lineup for the Toronto Blue Jays as of Game 1 of the World Series. He will play second base and bat cleanup, marking his first career start at that position in the majors.
Bichette has been sidelined since early September with a left knee PCL sprain sustained during sliding. He missed over six weeks of action.
The move to second base is a strategic adjustment to ease lateral movement stress on his injured knee while preserving his offensive role. He voluntarily proposed the change after discussions with the coaching staff.
In the past hour, lineups confirmed: Bichette is indeed in the batting order and starting at 2B. His presence restores major offensive firepower for the Jays.
The key factor tonight is how his knee handles game-speed activity and infield demands. If he looks fluid in pivots and turns, Toronto may keep him at 2B. If not, expect a shift to designated hitter or a reduced defensive role.
Bottom line: Bichette’s return boosts Toronto’s lineup significantly. The second-base experiment carries some risk, but this gives the team a major bat back on the field.
