Bo Bichette appears to have fully moved on from his seven years with the Blue Jays.

He signed a three-year, $126 million deal with the Mets this past January, closing out a run in Toronto where he became a genuine face of the franchise.

Asked how much he's kept in touch with his former teammates, Bichette didn't dress up the answer.

"Honestly, not much, not much," Bichette told Tyler Boronski. "I've probably had occasional conversations here and there."

He offered a simple explanation for the distance.

"I think that kind of stuff happens more in the offseason. We're all super busy trying to do the hardest sport in the world every day."

Bichette was clear there's no bad blood behind the silence, just the natural drift that comes with a demanding schedule and a new chapter elsewhere.

Why this distance isn't as surprising as it sounds

"A ton of love for them, but not a whole lot of conversation," he added.

That's a fairly candid admission from a player who spent seven seasons building relationships with teammates through multiple playoff runs and the sting of falling short of a championship.

He also endured years of trade speculation before eventually leaving Toronto as a free agent, a stretch that likely shaped how he's approached this transition.

For Blue Jays fans who watched him grow from a hyped prospect into an All-Star shortstop, hearing that daily contact has faded might feel jarring.

But his comments suggest a genuinely smooth transition into life with the Mets, one where the memories stay intact even as the day-to-day relationships move on.

That's often just the reality of professional sports. Careers change addresses, and the busy grind of a 162-game season leaves little room for maintaining old connections the way fans might expect.

Whether that distance closes back up in future offseasons, or Bichette's New York chapter simply continues writing itself separately from his Toronto years, is something only time will reveal.
