Insider speaks on the Toronto Blue Jays plans regarding Bo Bichette prior to the trade deadline
Toronto Blue Jays fans have been wondering all season long what will happen regarding Bo Bichette and insider Kerry Miller seems to believe the end is near for Bichette in Toronto.
Insider believes that the Blue Jays would be willing to trade Bo Bichette for the right offer
No one seems to be sure if the Blue Jays will be buyers or sellers at the trade deadline coming up since they currently sit around .500 but it looks like regardless of that Bichette might be on the move.
Insider Kerry Miller recently stated that the Blue Jays will not be shopping
Bichette but that if a team presents them with a phenomenal offer they will likely end up trading him.
They won't be shopping Bichette, so to speak, but they might be willing to be blown away by an offer. -Miller
Bleacher Report's Kerry Miller calls Bichette the "most likely" Toronto player to be traded. -Heyen
The issue with the Blue Jays trading Bichette is that there chances of finding a solid replacement for Bichette are very slim since over the last few years they cannot seem to get a big name to come to Toronto no matter how much they offer.
If the Blue Jays decide to call it an end with Bichette, it will be a very risky move since they need to make sure that they are able to replace him and quickly.
Once a decision is taken on whether or not they will sign him to an extension, the Blue Jays need to act quickly because holding onto him just to see him leave in free agency would be the biggest loss of all.
Hopefully the Blue Jays end up making the right decision but when looking at how they have dealt with things in the past, it certainly does not look good.
