The Los Angeles Dodgers have been quite active this winter on the heels of winning their second World Series since 2020.<\/p>\n

After making several significant acquisitions, could president of baseball operations Andrew Friedman find a way to land shortstop Bo Bichette from the Toronto Blue Jays?<\/p>\n

\"Blue<\/p>\n

At first glance, it doesn’t seem like there’s a ton of room to fit a player like Bichette on the Dodgers’ roster.<\/p>\n

FanGraphs’ Roster Resource has Mookie Betts at shortstop, Hyeseong Kim at second base, and Max Muncy at third base.<\/p>\n

However, things can change quickly because of potential injuries that occur throughout the course of a season.<\/p>\n

Jim Riley of Ballcap Sports evaluated the following hypothetical trade proposal that would send Bichette to Hollywood:<\/strong><\/p>\n

Dodgers receive:<\/strong> shortstop Bo Bichette Blue Jays receive: right-handed pitchers Michael Grove and Dustin May<\/p>\n

“Michael Grove is really the significant piece here because Michael Grove is also the piece with the longest runway,” Riley said. “<\/em><\/p>\n

Dustin May, I believe we’re in the final year of arbitration.<\/p>\n

So, that’s — I hate to say it — but May is kind of the throw-in to get the deal done if you want a Bo Bichette.” Ultimately, Riley thinks this is the kind of move the Blue Jays would want to make.<\/p>\n

Grove is entering his age-28 campaign in 2025. He won’t be eligible for arbitration until next winter and isn’t scheduled to reach free agency until 2029.<\/p>\n

Bichette had a rough 2024 that included a .598 OPS with four home runs, 31 RBI, and 29 runs scored in just 81 games played.<\/p>\n

However, the two-time All-Star put together three straight years of 20-plus homers and 30-plus doubles between 2021 and 2023. He’s set to earn $17.583 million this season, which is the final campaign of a three-year, $33.6 million extension.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
