Briefly

Where does Bo Bichette actually fit in the Blue Jays World Series lineup?
"Recent rumblings have indicated that star shortstop Bo Bichette will be ready for the Toronto Blue Jays in their World Series matchup against the Los Angeles Dodgers. Bichette had been on the sidelines due to a knee injury since early September, but appears to be finally healthy enough to return to the lineup in the most important series of the year (or as a matter of fact, this century) for the Blue Jays."
"As for the answer to that, Blue Jays manager John Schneider has recently hinted how the 27-year-old infielder could play when activated for the series. According to Keegan Matheson of MLB.com, when Schneider was asked where he intends to insert Bichette into the lineup, whether it be at shortstop, second base or as the designated hitter, Schneider said, "I could see all three of those things happening, to be honest with you.""
"John Schneider says that Bo Bichette is running, hitting and fielding today. Still "a few more boxes to check", but sounds encouraging. When I asked what's likelier: SS, 2B, DH?"I could see all three of those things happening, to be honest with you." So it appears as though the plan isn't quite as simple as returning Bichette to his usual stomping grounds at shortstop."
Bo Bichette was sidelined with a knee injury since early September and appears healthy enough to return for the World Series against the Los Angeles Dodgers. The Blue Jays have used a largely set daily playoff lineup since the ALCS against the Seattle Mariners that has been working well. Manager John Schneider said Bichette could play shortstop, second base, or serve as the designated hitter when activated. Placing Bichette at DH would minimize physical risk after an extended absence. Schneider and the team will weigh defensive readiness, lineup balance, and injury recovery when deciding Bichette’s role for the series.
