"The Blue Jays' most impactful change from their first two rounds of October is the return of Bo Bichette. He has been nursing a left knee sprain for well over a month, causing Bichette to be unavailable for the American League Division Series and Championship Series. After a rough 2024 season, Bichette responded with the best offensive year of his career."
"Although Bichette is now active, it's not clear how much he'll be able to play in the field. Manager John Schneider indicated the team nevertheless could see a scenario where Bichette played second base or shortstop, or was in the lineup as a designated hitter. Also added onto the Blue Jays roster for the World Series is Ty France, who likewise has yet to appear in a postseason game this year."
The Toronto Blue Jays set a 26-man World Series roster with 12 pitchers and 14 position players. Bo Bichette returned from a left knee sprain after missing the ALDS and ALCS, following a strong offensive season (.311/.357/.483, 44 doubles, 18 homers, 94 RBI, 134 wRC+). Bichette's defensive availability remains uncertain, with potential roles at second base, shortstop, or designated hitter. Ty France was added to the roster and has yet to play in the postseason this year. Anthony Santander is ineligible after being removed during the ALCS, and José Berríos remains on the injured list with right elbow inflammation. The World Series marks the first postseason meeting between the Blue Jays and Dodgers.
