Bo Bichette enters free agency ranked as the No. 5 overall player on this year’s market, and his name is already drawing widespread interest from contenders across Major League Baseball. According to multiple reports, as many as nine different teams are expected to pursue the star infielder, with the **Los Angeles Dodgers** emerging as one of the most intriguing potential fits.
While Bichette has spent his entire career at shortstop with the **Toronto Blue Jays**, sources indicate that if he were to join the Dodgers, he would likely transition to **second base**. Los Angeles already features a strong defensive presence at shortstop and could opt to shift **Tommy Edman**—acquired earlier this offseason—to the **outfield** or even **third base**, depending on roster construction. This flexibility would give manager Dave Roberts an array of lineup options while adding another high-contact, right-handed bat to a deep and balanced offense.
The Dodgers’ interest in Bichette stems not only from his proven offensive production but also from his postseason experience and leadership qualities. At just 27 years old, Bichette has already posted multiple .300-plus seasons, earned All-Star honors, and developed a reputation as one of the game’s most consistent middle infielders.
Beyond Los Angeles, other rumored suitors include the **Cubs**, **Giants**, **Yankees**, **Mariners**, and **Cardinals**, each viewing Bichette as a cornerstone-caliber addition capable of stabilizing the infield for years to come.
For Bichette, the next step could define his career—whether he chooses a big-market contender like the Dodgers or seeks a leadership role on a rising team. Wherever he lands, his combination of elite bat-to-ball skills and competitiveness will make him one of the most impactful signings of the offseason.
