Free-agent shortstop Bo Bichette is informing teams of his willingness to switch to second base, a position he played competently during the 2025 World Series. This move could expand his market amid concerns over his long-term viability at shortstop. The 27-year-old Toronto Blue Jays standout hit .311 last season with strong offensive numbers.
Building on earlier confidence amid fading Mets interest, fresh MLB analyst predictions and GM Brian Cashman's endorsement bolster the New York Yankees' hopes of re-signing free agent outfielder Cody Bellinger, despite rival suitors.

Following reports of Arizona Diamondbacks interest, the Boston Red Sox have emerged as frontrunners to re-sign free agent third baseman Alex Bregman—who hit 18 HR with an .822 OPS for them in 2025—thanks to payroll flexibility from acquiring Willson Contreras. The Blue Jays, Diamondbacks, and Cubs remain in pursuit.
