NEWS: The Mets signed Bo Bichette to a three-year, $126 million contract with opt outs after each season.
IMPACT: High
BHQ SPIN: The expectation is that Bichette will take over third base even though he’s never played an inning there in his professional career. His arrival pushes Brett Baty off third except as a back-up to Bichette. For now, it seems Baty could be used in a super utility role.

Bichette’s arrival makes a trade more likely.
