Ex-Blue Jays' star Bo Bichette signals intention to opt-in, likely frustrating Mets fans
"Bichette recently told reporters "Any player would love them, to have control of their future... But when I signed here, I took it as a three-year deal." Bo Bichette on the opt-outs after the first two years of his three-year contract:"Any player would love them, to have control of their future... But when I signed here, I took it as a three-year deal.""
Bo Bichette’s early performance with the New York Mets shows a major gap between defense and offense. Over his first 46 games in Queens, he is hitting .210/.262/.269 with a wRC+ of 54. His defensive value is far higher than his offensive value, with 3.0 defensive fWAR and -11.3 offensive fWAR. The defensive improvement comes despite his move to third base, a position he had not played at the major league level before. His offense has not improved, and his comments suggest he will not consider contract opt-outs after the first two years, treating the agreement as a three-year deal.
