The Toronto Bluejays have locked up another one of their young stars for the long term after agreeing to a three-year $33.6 million contract with shortstop Bo Bichette to avoid arbitration Tuesday.
The contract can be worth as much as much as $40.65 million if Bichette earns certain awards or escalators, according to Ken Rosenthal of The Athletic.
Bichette, 24, was supposed to have an arbitration trial later this week, but now he won't become a free agent until the end of the 2025 season.
