In another sign of what’s been a rocky season for the Toronto Blue Jays, star shortstop Bo Bichette appeared to openly flirt with the idea of playing for another team on Wednesday.
Typically, professional athletes try their best to avoid generating potentially controversial buzz when speaking to reporters.
But in another sign of what’s been a rocky season for the Toronto Blue Jays, star shortstop Bo Bichette appeared to openly flirt with the idea of playing for a team like the San Francisco Giants on Wednesday.
“I haven’t really explored the city much. For me, first and foremost, I want to win. That would be the No. 1 priority for me if I was choosing a team, and the Giants are obviously committed to that,” Bichette told NBC Sports San Francisco in a clip making the rounds on X, formerly known as Twitter.
“They’re in a position to get the right type of players and I think that’s what’s important.”
Baseball fans appeared to be taken aback by Bichette’s remarks.
“This is crazy. … Dude is basically begging to be traded here! When does that ever happen???” X user @SFGiantsGuy_ wrote in part Wednesday.
“Make it happen!”
X user @LeafErikzen was also critical.
