Blue Jays make big roster moves involving Bo Bichette ahead of game vs Astros
The Toronto Blue Jays announced some big roster moves ahead of their first game against the Houston Astros as Bo Bichette is headed to IL.
Bichette has missed last game with a knee injury but the team said that there was no concern since his X-Rays came back negative but it looks like that is not the case.

This move is certainly worrying for the Blue Jays as Bichette has been one of their best players this season and they need him for this final stretch of the season and the playoffs.
The good news is that Loperfido has been great this season for Toronto and will likely do a great job of adding additional offense during Bichette's absence on IL.
