So it\u2019s exciting.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Bichette chatted for a few minutes by his clubhouse stall before morning workouts at the team\u2019s player development complex. He bumped fists with teammate and good friend, Vladimir Guerrero Jr., as the slugger walked by during the interview.<\/p>\n<p>Both infielders came up through the system and have been tagged as faces of the franchise. However, their future with the club beyond this season is unclear.<\/p>\n<div class=\"c-ad c-ad--bigbox l-article__ad c-ad--tallSticky\">\n<p>Story continues below advertisement<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p>Bichette hasn\u2019t had contract extension talks with the Blue Jays, who were unable to ink Guerrero to a long-term deal before his negotiation deadline arrived earlier this week.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI\u2019ve played with him for so many years that I know he\u2019s here to win,\u201d Bichette said. \u201cSame goes for everybody else in here.

He also has plenty of speed, stealing 30 bases in each of the last two seasons.<\/p>\n<p>Signed to a lucrative deal through 2029 with a team option for 2030, his arrival makes a strong defence even better.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI think he\u2019s taken away probably 30 hits from us the last couple years,\u201d Schneider said. \u201cSo I\u2019m glad he\u2019s on our side. He\u2019s all business. I think he brings the intensity up with each ground-ball session for everybody because of what he can do defensively.<\/p>\n<section id=\"content-dynamic-trending-stories\" class=\"l-inlineStories l-inlineStories--tile u-hide-tablet-landscape\" aria-label=\"Dynamic trending stories section\">\n<p>\n\t\t<span class=\"l-inlineStories__title c-heading c-heading--strikethrough\">Trending Now<\/span>\n\t<\/p>\n<ul class=\"l-inlineStories__posts c-posts c-posts--inline \">\n<li class=\"c-posts__item\">\n\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/globalnews.ca\/news\/11025904\/arizona-plane-crash-dead-midair-collision\/\" class=\"c-posts__inner\"><\/p>\n<div class=\"c-posts__media \">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"c-posts__thumbnail\" data-src=\"https:\/\/globalnews.ca\/wp-content\/themes\/shaw-globalnews\/assets\/dist\/images\/placeholder.png\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"816\" height=\"544\" alt=\"\"\/>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n<div class=\"c-posts__details\">\n<p>\n\t\t\t\t<span class=\"c-posts__headlineText\" title=\"Arizona plane crash kills at least 2 people after midair collision\" data-title=\"\">Arizona plane crash kills at least 2 people after midair collision<\/span>\n\t<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p>\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t<\/li>\n<li class=\"c-posts__item\">\n\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/globalnews.ca\/news\/11024978\/elon-musk-father-errol-interview-parenting-skills-podcast\/\" class=\"c-posts__inner\"><\/p>\n<div class=\"c-posts__media \">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"c-posts__thumbnail\" data-src=\"https:\/\/globalnews.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/Elon-Errol-Musk-Parenting.jpg?quality=85&amp;strip=all&amp;w=336&amp;h=224&amp;crop=1\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"336\" height=\"224\" alt=\"\"\/>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n<div class=\"c-posts__details\">\n<p>\n\t\t\t\t<span class=\"c-posts__headlineText\" title=\"Elon Musk\u2019s father chastises his son: He \u2018hasn\u2019t been a good dad\u2019\" data-title=\"\">Elon Musk\u2019s father chastises his son: He \u2018hasn\u2019t been a good dad\u2019<\/span>\n\t<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p>\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/section>\n<p>\u201cHe can really swing the bat too.\u201d<\/p>\n<div class=\"c-ad c-ad--bigbox l-article__ad c-ad--tallSticky\">\n<p>Story continues below advertisement<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p>A two-time all-star, Bichette led the American League in hits in 2021 and \u201922. He hit at least 20 homers in his first three full seasons with the Blue Jays but struggled last year with a .225 average and just four homers and 31 RBIs over 81 games.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThere\u2019s always numbers that you think you\u2019re capable of and want to reach,\u201d said Bichette, who has shorn his long brown hair. \u201cBut really for me, I just want to be as competitive as I can every day, the toughest possible out that I can be every day.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI want to look for every advantage I can on the bases, in the field and as a hitter. I think if I keep those (things) the focus, I\u2019ll be in a good spot.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The first half of the 2025 season will be a critical period for a team that\u2019s built to win now. Early struggles could lead to another sell-off at the trade deadline and a potential rebuild.<\/p>\n<p>But if everything clicks and the team becomes a contender again, the core that\u2019s in place could endure. Bichette and Guerrero have always expressed their desire to stay together and win together.<\/p>\n<p>Whether that\u2019s in Toronto or elsewhere remains to be seen.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI think I\u2019ve learned to appreciate the joy he plays with and the passion he plays with,\u201d Bichette said of Guerrero. \u201cWhat you see on the field is what you get in the clubhouse. He\u2019s just enjoying life, which I appreciate a ton.
