  • Blue Jays' Cavan Biggio: Swinging hot bat

    Biggio went 2-for-3 with a walk, two doubles and two runs scored in Monday's Grapefruit League game against the Rays.

    Getting the start at second base and batting leadoff in a Toronto lineup missing all its top stars, Biggio rapped out a pair of two-baggers off Zach Eflin. The 28-year-old utility player was brought along slowly in camp but has hit the ground running since seeing his first Grapefruit League action Thursday, going 4-for-8 with three doubles. Biggio could see a significant workload for the Jays this season as he splits his time between second base, third base and right field.

  • Blue Jays' Cavan Biggio: Making Grapefruit League debut

    Biggio (shoulder) will start at second base and bat second Thursday versus the Tigers in his Grapefruit League debut.

    Biggio has been brought along methodically this spring after coming into camp with tendinitis in his left (non-throwing) shoulder, but he's been ramping up of late and is now ready to test himself in a game setting. The 28-year-old is likely to fill a super-utility role for the Blue Jays this season, seeing time at second base, third base and right field.

  • Blue Jays' Cavan Biggio: Hits in simulated game

    Biggio (shoulder) hit in a simulated game Sunday and has been going through full defensive drills, Ben Nicholson-Smith of Sportsnet.ca reports.

    Biggio has been slow-played this spring after reporting to camp with some tendinitis in his left (non-throwing) shoulder. He's progressed well, though, and while it's unclear when he might play in a Grapefruit League contest, it doesn't appear to be far off.

  • Blue Jays' Cavan Biggio: Progressing well

    Biggio (shoulder) has been hitting off a pitching machine regularly, Keegan Matheson of MLB.com reports.

    It's not clear when Biggio might be cleared for Grapefruit League action, but the Blue Jays don't seem overly worried about his status at the moment. He's working his way back from tendinitis in his left shoulder.

  • Blue Jays' Cavan Biggio: Completes batting practice

    Biggio (shoulder) was able to take a round of batting practice Thursday, Keegan Matheson of MLB.com reports.

    Blue Jays manager John Schneider noted one week ago that Biggio was dealing with left shoulder tendinitis upon reporting to spring training, but the issue doesn't look to be anything too concerning. The fact that Biggio is already hitting without any apparent limitations bodes well for his chances of being available for Grapefruit League action in the near future, even if he's not included in the Blue Jays' initial spring lineups.

  • Blue Jays' Cavan Biggio: Dealing with shoulder tendinitis

    Blue Jays manager John Schneider said Thursday that Biggio has left shoulder tendinitis, Keegan Matheson of MLB.com reports.

    He has yet to face live pitching so far this spring, but it's possible the Jays are simply erring on the side of caution in order to prevent Biggio's shoulder from getting any worse. Schneider also noted Thursday that the utility player is expected to be in the mix for reps at second and third base -- a good indication that Biggio will be ready when Grapefruit League play begins later this spring.

  • Blue Jays' Cavan Biggio: In mix at second base, third base

    Blue Jays manager John Schneider on Thursday mentioned Biggio, Isiah Kiner-Falefa and Santiago Espinal when asked about the team's options at second and third base, Shi Davidi of Sportsnet.ca reports.

    Notably absent was Davis Schneider, who the skipper said would focus on playing left field in addition to second base. Biggio did see most of the action at second base for Toronto down the stretch last season and started both games in the club's Wild Card Series loss to the Twins. The 28-year-old could be the favorite to handle the keystone against right-handed pitching, at least initially.

  • Blue Jays' Cavan Biggio: Gets $4.21 million

    Biggio agreed to a one-year, $4.21 million deal with the Blue Jays on Thursday, avoiding arbitration, Shi Davidi of Sportsnet.ca reports.

    The 28-year-old utility man has been a pretty steady producer for Toronto, save for a down 2021 season where he was worth -0.2 fWAR. Biggio is eligible at second base, outfield and first base, which is the most appealing aspect of his fantasy profile. He slashed .235/.340/.370 with nine homers and five steals in 338 plate appearances last season.

  • Blue Jays' Cavan Biggio: Starting at 2B, batting fifth

    Biggio is starting at second base and batting fifth for Tuesday's Game 1 of the AL Wild Card Series in Minnesota, Ben Wagner of Sportsnet Radio reports.

    No player improved his standing with the Blue Jays in September more than Biggio, who slashed .277/.408/.374 while starting each of the final 13 games down the stretch. He played four different positions in the final month but appears in line to serve as Toronto's regular second baseman versus right-handers during the postseason.

  • Blue Jays' Cavan Biggio: Scores twice, drives in two in win

    Biggio went 2-for-4 with a walk, two runs and two RBI in Friday's 11-4 win over the Rays.

    Biggio made his 10th consecutive start Friday and his third in a row at second base, where he appears to have supplanted both Davis Schneider and Whit Merrifield as the team's preferred option. The 28-year-old has earned the everyday role by slashing .276/.398/.382 in September, with his efforts at the dish not going unnoticed as Toronto aims to secure a wild-card berth.

  • Blue Jays' Cavan Biggio: Hitting cleanup again

    Biggio is starting at second base and batting cleanup Wednesday against the Yankees.

    The 28-year-old has a .916 OPS in 13 games since Sept. 4 and will bat cleanup for the second straight contest Wednesday. Biggio's hot bat has resulted in him being a lineup regular so far in September, and he's seen action at first base, second base, third base and right field this month.

  • Blue Jays' Cavan Biggio: Not in Wednesday's lineup

    Biggio is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Rangers.

    Biggio has lately been filling the large side of a platoon at third base, so it's not a surprise he's sitting Wednesday with southpaw Jordan Montgomery pitching for Texas. Santiago Espinal will man the hot corner in Biggio's place and bat sixth.

  • Blue Jays' Cavan Biggio: Moves back to bench role

    Biggio is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Reds.

    Biggio had started at second base or in right field in each of the past seven games, going 7-for-22 with five walks, five runs, three RBI and one stolen base. Despite his strong results at the plate of late, Biggio looks poised to see his opportunities take a hit moving forward as he likely moves into more of a utility role. Bo Bichette, Kevin Kiermaier, Matt Chapman and George Springer have all returned from recent injury-related absences, bringing the Toronto lineup back to full strength.

  • Blue Jays' Cavan Biggio: Gaining foothold at second base

    Biggio will start at second base and bat fifth in Wednesday's game against the Phillies.

    Biggio will get his fifth straight start Wednesday, with four coming at the keystone during that stretch. He's earned the extra playing time by providing an .847 OPS through his first nine games in August, and Biggio could have an extended leash in a near-everyday role in the Toronto infield with Whit Merrifield having moved to the outfield to help cover for the injured Kevin Kiermaier (elbow).

  • Blue Jays' Cavan Biggio: Returns to bench Wednesday

    Biggio is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Guardians.

    The lefty-hitting Biggio had started the previous three games, but he'll hit the bench Wednesday with southpaw Logan Allen on the bump for Cleveland. With Kevin Kiermaier (elbow) landing on the 10-day injured list Tuesday, Biggio will likely be battling with rookie Davis Schneider for one spot in the Blue Jays' regular lineup versus right-handed pitching.

  • Blue Jays' Cavan Biggio: Goes deep Monday

    Biggio went 1-for-3 with a two-run home run in a 3-1 win against the Guardians on Monday.

    In a contest that featured little offense, Biggio provided the biggest hit with a two-run shot in the eighth inning that broke a scoreless tie. The long ball snapped a 20-game homerless streak for Biggio that dated back to June 25. It's been a mostly forgettable campaign for the 28-year-old, as he's slashing a quiet .213/.295/.396 with eight homers, 22 RBI, 29 runs and three stolen bases over 183 plate appearances.

  • Blue Jays' Cavan Biggio: Swipes third bag

    Biggio went 2-for-3 with a walk, an RBI and a stolen base in Saturday's 9-8 loss to the Mariners.

    Getting the start at second base and batting eighth, Biggio stole his first bag since June 4 and only his third of the season. The utility player is batting .292 (7-for-24) in July with a 4:5 BB:K, but there's no clear path to consistent playing time for him on the Toronto roster.
