"Bichette is the biggest name of the current crop of Blue Jays free agents and there's been a recent development in his market. Bichette has been telling teams that he is open to switching positions and playing second base full time. That bodes well for a return to Toronto as they are a better defensive team with Andrés Giménez at short."
"Bassitt proved he was the ultimate team guy last season when he was labelled as one of the key cogs in the Blue Jays club house unity, and then also accepted a role in the bullpen in the playoffs. While it feels like there would be a spot for him in the Blue Jays bullpen, the soon to be 37-year-old could also be a prime candidate to fill out the back end of another teams rotation."
The Blue Jays added both starters and relievers this offseason to bolster their chances ahead of 2026. No 2025 roster player who reached free agency has yet re-signed with the club, and only one or two are likely to return. Six Blue Jays free agents remain unsigned as the market develops. Bo Bichette is the highest-profile free agent and has told teams he is open to moving to second base, which would improve the team defensively alongside Andrés Giménez at short. Chris Bassitt is a veteran option who can serve in the bullpen or the back end of a rotation.
