"Across 6184 innings at shortstop, the 27-year-old owns a -19 DRS with 84 errors and has produced a .966 fielding percentage, which is .007 below the league average for the position. In 2021, Bichette led the league in errors (24) and followed that with 23 errors in 2022. He dramatically improved in 2023, producing a +4 DRS while committing just eight errors across 130 games."
"The right-handed bat owns a career .294/.337/.469 slash line with a .806 OPS. Across seven seasons and 3075 at-bats, Bichette has amassed a 21.0 bWAR with 111 home runs and 437 RBIs while also leading the American League in hits in 2021 and 2022. After injuries cut his season short in 2024, Bichette bounced back last season to the tune of a .311/.357/.483 slash line with 181 hits, 44 doubles, 18 home runs, and a team-leading 91 RBIs with a .840 OPS."
Bo Bichette has informed interested teams that he is willing to move to second base. Career defensive metrics at shortstop include a -19 DRS, 84 errors, a .966 fielding percentage, a -27 fielding run value, and a -33 Outs Above Average, with a -13 OAA last season. The move to second base suits his below-average arm and fielding more than shortstop or third base, though defensive improvement is not guaranteed. Offensively, Bichette owns a .294/.337/.469 career slash line with a .806 OPS, 21.0 bWAR, 111 home runs, and multiple seasons leading the league in hits.
