He didn\u2019t even make an effort to grab it right away. Blue Jays might have gotten screwed,\u201d SI\u2019s JD Andress posted.<\/p>\n<p>Now, as the offseason begins, several players are hitting free agency \u2014 including Bo Bichette. Competing for Bichette\u2019s services will be a challenge for any team, as he\u2019s expected to command a sizable contract.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe key question facing Bichette&#8217;s free agency is how teams will view him positionally. If a club is willing to stomach his shortstop defense, then the comparison to Willy Adames&#8217; agreement with the Giants (seven years, $182 million) is a good reference point. I&#8217;m going to assume that will be the case, at least in the short term. I&#8217;ll add in some extra coin because of Bichette&#8217;s age advantage and inflation. Seven years, $189 million ($27 million AAV),\u201d <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.cbssports.com\/mlb\/news\/mlb-free-agency-contracts-predictions\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">CBS Sports\u2019 RJ Anderson wrote.<\/a><\/p>\n<p>According to MLB insider Jon Morosi, Bichette isn\u2019t being viewed strictly as a shortstop this offseason.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cCan confirm Bo Bichette has received interest from multiple teams who view him as a second baseman or third baseman, due to the presence of an established shortstop on those rosters. Further evidence that the World Series augmented his value in the marketplace,\u201d <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/jonmorosi\/status\/1988253028278039029\" rel=\"nofollow\">Morosi posted.<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Bichette\u2019s bat during the World Series was impossible to ignore. He proved he can hit at an elite level, though his defense at shortstop remains a concern. Still, his postseason performance significantly boosted his market value.<\/p>\n<p>With Bichette being considered for multiple positions, more teams are expected to enter the mix \u2014 possibly even the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sportingnews.com\/ca\/mlb\/new-york-mets\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">New York Mets<\/a> or the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sportingnews.com\/ca\/mlb\/philadelphia-phillies\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Philadelphia Phillies<\/a>.
