The Toronto Blue Jays are breathing a sigh of relief as their star shortstop, Bo Bichette, reports he is "feeling better every day" while recovering from a knee injury. Manager John Schneider shared this encouraging update with reporters on Friday.

During a light workout in Kansas City, Bichette engaged in soft toss and tee work, signaling his progress as he prepares for a return ahead of the playoffs. Schneider noted that while Bichette is making strides, he still has many steps to complete before he can run the bases and return to the field.

Bichette sustained a sprained PCL in his left knee on September 6 during a dramatic slide into home plate against the New York Yankees. This week, the Blue Jays officially ruled him out for the remainder of the regular season. However, there’s hope in the air for his return during the postseason.

In a thrilling twist, the Blue Jays can secure their playoff spot with a victory over the Royals, provided at least two contenders—Detroit Tigers, Cleveland Guardians, or Boston Red Sox—lose Friday night.

Before his injury, Bichette was on fire, showcasing one of his best offensive seasons just as he approaches free agency this winter. With a stellar .311/.357/.483 batting line, 18 home runs, and 94 RBIs, he continues to shine even while sidelined, leading the American League in hits (181) and doubles (44). Will he make a triumphant return in time to help his team shine in the postseason? Stay tuned!
