There is plenty of interest in Bichette in free agency, but two teams stand out right now: The Boston Red Sox and the Philadelphia Phillies. After Alex Bregman reportedly agreed to a deal with the Chicago Cubs, USA Today's Bob Nightengale reported the Red Sox will shift their focus to Bichette, whom they were already reportedly talking to.
Infielder Bo Bichette is one of the biggest names still available in free agency, and The Athletic’s senior MLB insider Ken Rosenthal believes there is a “favorite” emerging to sign him.
The New York Yankees still haven't made any offseason signings from outside of their organization, and they are "almost certain" to lose Bo Bichette. Don Mattingly may be a key reason for the loss.
How the Boston Red Sox view Bo Bichette could be bad news for the Toronto Blue Jays and Philadelphia Phillies.
The Phillies have scheduled a meeting with Bichette and done extensive work on the roster ripple effects of signing him, sources say.
"A Bichette signing would thus open trade avenues -- potentially for a starting pitcher, with the Yanks having expressed interest in the Brewers’ Freddy Peralta and the Nationals’ MacKenzie Gore, among others. That holds true for a Bellinger reunion as well, considering Jasson Domínguez would be dislodged in left field."
