The Mets signed Bo Bichette to a three-year, $126 million contract.
Fantasy Impact
The Mets respond quickly after just missing out on Kyle Tucker. He figures to likely slide in at third base for them. It is another big contract handed out by Steve Cohen as the Mets look to remain competitive.
Bo Bichette, one of the prized free agents on this year's market, is scheduled to meet with the Phillies on Monday as reported by Jon Heyman.
Fantasy Impact
Bichette, who will turn 28 in March, enjoyed a rebound 2025 season that saw him bat .311 with 18 home runs and 94 RBI for the AL Champion Blue Jays. The two-time All-Star has received MVP votes in four of his seven seasons in Toronto. He is a career .294 hitter with 111 home runs in nearly 3,300 plate appearances. If Bichette ends up signing with Philadelphia, it would more than likely spell the end of J.T. Realmuto's era and could also signify a trade of Alec Bohm, as the Phillies would like to use him at third base. Stay tuned.
Bo Bichette is reportedly increasingly unlikely to return to the Toronto Blue Jays in free agency, according to Ken Rosenthal via Foul Territory.
Fantasy Impact
The Blue Jays recenty finalized a four-year deal with Japanese infielder Kazuma Okamoto and have still been linked to top free agent bat Kyle Tucker, moves that combine to likely squeeze Bichette out of the picture in Toronto. The middle infielder, still just 27 years old, reportedly has several clubs with serious interest in him and should have no problem landing a lucrative long-term deal this winter.
The Philadelphia Phillies have reportedly joined the pursuit of free-agent infielder Bo Bichette.
Fantasy Impact
Bichette is unsurprisingly drawing interest from a number of teams on the open market as one of the top remaining free agents. The middle infielder is reportedly willing to move to second base given defensive concerns at shortstop in recent seasons. The 27-year-old is one of the game's best pure hitters, hitting .311 with 18 home runs and an .840 OPS across 139 games in the 2025 campaign.
The Red Sox reportedly had a Zoom meeting with Bo Bichette.
Fantasy Impact
Alexander notes that Bichette "came away impressed with the Red Sox.” If Boston can't re-sign Alex Bregman, they could turn to Bichette in free agency.
