BO BICHETTE NEWS

Two hits in rehab debut Bichette (knee) went 2-for-3 with two singles and a run scored in his rehab debut Wednesday for Triple-A Buffalo.

Impact Bichette was supposed to begin his minor-league rehab assignment with Buffalo on Tuesday before the game got postponed due to rain. He served as Buffalo's designated hitter Wednesday but is scheduled to play shortstop Thursday and could return to the Blue Jays' active roster as early as Friday's series opener in Cincinnati. The 25-year-old has been sidelined since late July because of patellar tendinitis in his right knee.

Beginning rehab assignment Bichette (knee) will open his rehab assignment as Triple-A Buffalo's designated hitter Tuesday, Kaitlyn McGrath of The Athletic reports.

Impact The 25-year-old won't immediately play the field with Buffalo but should be at shortstop Wednesday or Thursday. Bichette is only expected to play in a couple games at Triple-A before potentially rejoining the Blue Jays for Friday's series opener at Cincinnati.

Rehab assignment imminent Bichette (knee) could begin a rehab assignment as soon as Tuesday, Mike Wilner of the Toronto Star reports.

Impact At last check, Bichette had not yet been running at full speed, but it would appear he's made some nice progress the last few days. The star shortstop is working his way back from right patellar tendinitis, an injury which has cost him all of August. When he does begin a rehab assignment, he shouldn't need more than a few games before rejoining the Blue Jays.

Not running at full speed yet Bichette (knee) has been hitting in the batting cage and jogging but is not yet running at full speed, Keegan Matheson of MLB.com reports.

Impact The Blue Jays are encouraged by Bichette's progress so far, but they're not able to put out a timetable for his return until he shows he can run the bases without issue. When that occurs remains up in the air. Bichette has missed all of August with right patellar tendinitis.

Nearly symptom-free Monday Blue Jays general manager Ross Atkins said in an interview on MLB Network on Tuesday that Bichette (knee) was "moving around with very few symptoms, almost not at all" during a wor...

Impact Bichette resumed baseball activities a few days ago and looks to be ramping things back up with encouraging results as he works his way back from patellar tendinitis in his right knee. Toronto has not provided a timetable for the star shortstop's return, but if things continue to trend in the right direction there would seem to be a chance Bichette can be activated when first eligible Friday or close to it.

Increasing activity level Bichette (knee) took part in some throwing drills Saturday and continues to steadily increase the amount of intensity of his baseball activities since he was placed on the 10-day i...

Impact According to Zwelling, the Blue Jays hadn't ruled out the possibility of Bichette beginning a hitting progression Sunday if he bounced back well from Saturday's workout, though it's unclear whether he ended up swinging the bat to close out the weekend. In any case, Bichette appears to be responding well to treatment for the patellar tendinitis in his right knee, and while he remains without a clear timeline for a return, he seemingly has a chance at being activated from the IL shortly after he's first eligible Friday.

Lands on IL with knee tendinitis Bichette was placed on the 10-day injured list Wednesday with right patellar tendinitis, Keegan Matheson of MLB.com reports.

Impact Bichette tweaked his knee in Monday's series opener against the Orioles and needs an extended break for rest and treatment. Blue Jays manager John Schneider declined Wednesday to put a timetable on the star shortstop's return, telling Kaitlyn McGrath of The Athletic that "we got to see how he does." Tuesday's trade-deadline acquisition of Paul DeJong from the Cardinals has suddenly proven a lot more useful for Toronto.

Day-to-day with knee inflammation Bichette's MRI revealed inflammation in his right knee and he is being listed as day-to-day as of Tuesday, Mitch Bannon of SI.com reports.

Impact This is about as good of a diagnosis as fantasy managers could have hoped for, given that Bichette left Monday's game against Baltimore with a knee injury and the Blue Jays traded for another shortstop (Paul DeJong) the next day. In the meantime, Santiago Espinal could get the start at shortstop Tuesday.

Impact It's a vague report from Heyman, but it's at least a good sign for fantasy managers that may have feared the worst when Bichette exited Monday's game with an injury and the team acquired another shortstop the next day. Bichette hit .337 with three home runs, eight runs and 11 RBI in 101 at-bats in July.
