"As an ultra young free agent at 27, Bichette's ask is thought around $300 million, which at first blush may sound high considering that's the ballpark of even more accomplished shortstops Corey Seager, Trea Turner and Francisco Lindor, but maybe not when you consider how deals for Juan Soto and Bichette's teammate/great friend Vlad Guerrero Jr. moved the market. (Logic says Seager at 27 might get $500M today considering that's what Guerrero got.)"
"Bichette was on his way to leading the AL in hits for a third time in four years when he hurt his knee - he played a near-starring World Series cameo and should be fine for 2026 - and he's the only player to hit .300 on fastballs, breaking balls and changeups/splits in 2025. Since 2021, he's one of three to hit .290 plus with a .450 plus slugging percentage to all three fields, (Guerrero and Yordan Alvarez)."
The Dodgers are exploring options and are connected to several top targets, with Bo Bichette among their prominent interests. Bichette, 27, is reportedly seeking about $300 million in free agency. He missed part of 2025 due to a knee injury but contributed in the World Series and is expected to be healthy for 2026. Bichette demonstrated rare hitting versatility in 2025, posting .300 against fastballs, breaking balls and changeups and maintaining strong overall results since 2021. The Dodgers view him as a possible everyday second baseman, but his reported price could prevent a deal.
