Bichette, Santander take batting practice for Jays

TORONTO – All-star shortstop Bo Bichette and veteran slugger Anthony Santander are both taking batting practice with the Toronto Blue Jays.

Bichette has been out since Sept. 6 with a sprained left knee.

Blue Jays manager John Schneider says Bichette took swings in the batting cage Monday and would again today.

Santander has been out with a shoulder injury since May 29.

He had been doing a rehab assignment with the triple-A Buffalo Bisons but the minor-league team’s season ended Sunday.

Schenider says Santander was also in Toronto and, like Bichette, would take batting practice.
