\u201cThe shortstop market has been terrible, but people are not necessarily looking at Bichette as a shortstop,\u201d Feinsand said<\/a> (h\/t New York Post Sports). \u201cHe is starting to tell teams he\u2019s willing to move to second base.\u201d<\/p>\n Oct 27, 2025; Los Angeles, California, USA; Toronto Blue Jays second baseman Bo Bichette (11) hits an RBI single against the Los Angeles Dodgers in the seventh inning during game three of the 2025 MLB World Series at Dodger Stadium.

Ahead of the 2025 World Series, which the Blue Jays would go on to lose to the Los Angeles Dodgers in heartbreaking fashion, he expressed a similar sentiment. <\/p>\n \u201cIt was something that I felt like I could get ready for quicker than another position,” Bichette said. “I just want to be ready to help the team in any way that is afforded to me, so that felt like an opportunity for me, and obviously they were on board with it.\u201d<\/p>\n Bo Bichette Position Switch Could be Bad for Jazz Chisholm Jr.<\/p>\n While the comments are likely good news for Bichette, who is seeking a massive contract as a free agent, they could spell disaster for another infielder: Yankees second baseman Jazz Chisholm Jr. <\/a><\/p>\n The Yankees have been in the market for a consistent, big-name bat this offseason. While most signs point to a heavy-hitting outfielder like Cody Bellinger or Kyle Tucker, it’s possible Bichette fits the mold. Chisholm has already been named as a possible trade piece for a Yankees team that also needs more closer depth and a another starting pitcher who will be healthy on Opening Day. <\/p>\n Sep 19, 2025; Baltimore, Maryland, USA; New York Yankees second baseman Jazz Chisholm Jr. (13) throws to first for an out during the seventh inning against the Baltimore Orioles at Oriole Park at Camden Yards.

However, he has difficulty base hitting, and can be inconsistent at the plate, oscillating between massive homers and strikeouts. General manager Brian Cashman described<\/a> the team as “open minded” about a trade involving Chisholm during Winter Meetings.<\/p>\n There’s good news for Chisholm, though. There are no guarantees that Bichette would be as successful defensively at shortstop, and the Yankees will need a big trade to deal him. Even with Bichette, there’s always the possibility that the team moves Chisholm back to third base (though he is better at second) and part ways with Ryan McMahon, whose bat is significantly weaker. <\/p>\n![\"Toronto](\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/01kcvhp9s50k1qj83tb4.jpg\" "\\"Toronto")
