Bo Bichette wasn’t in the lineup last night against the Yankees, and that’s because he’s now under MLB concussion protocol under further notice. That could be just a few days, or it might mean that Bichette misses the last eight games of the season.
And if that happens, so be it.
Don’t get me wrong, even in a rebuilding year that’s been tough to watch, I’m soaking up what’s left of the Blue Jays’ season before a long winter without MLB baseball. Bichette has also become arguably the most exciting part of watching this young team, and I’d absolutely prefer to see him continue the success he’s found at the highest level since arriving at the end of July.
