Could the American League champion Toronto Blue Jays be getting some lineup reinforcement for the World Series?
If you ask Bo Bichette, absolutely.
In the aftermath of Toronto’s Game 7 win over the Seattle Mariners, the Blue Jays’ star shortstop was asked about taking the field for Game 1 of the World Series, which goes Friday at Rogers Centre.
“I’ll be ready,” he said.
Earlier Monday, Blue Jays manager John Schneider told reporters that Bichette has been making “significant progress” behind the scenes as he continues to recover from a knee injury.
The shortstop is apparently doing light running and progressing with his hitting.
“Progress is just kind of just where he feels with his swing and how much more comfortable he feels kind of letting it rip,” said Schneider to reporters befo
