Left off ALDS roster
Bichette (knee) isn't listed on the Blue Jays' ALDS roster.
Analiz
Bichette has yet to resume running since suffering a PCL sprain in his left knee in early September, so his absence from the ALDS roster doesn't come as much of a surprise. The 27-year-old will be eligible to return for the start of the ALCS, provided the Jays make it that far, though he will first need to make significant strides in his recovery. Until then, Andres Gimenez will continue to act as Toronto's primary shortstop.

Unlikely to play in ALDS
Bichette (knee) is "increasingly unlikely" to be included on the Blue Jays' ALDS roster, Rob Longley of the Toronto Sun reports.
Analiz
Bichette is coming along slowly but surely in his recovery from a PCL sprain in his left knee and has not yet officially been ruled out for the ALDS. However, the shortstop has yet to be cleared to resume running, so it's not a surprise to hear he's a long shot to play in the ALDS. Bichette could make it back in time for the ALCS, should the Blue Jays advance. With Bichette shelved, Toronto will continue to roll with Andres Gimenez at shortstop.

Yet to resume running
Blue Jays manager John Schneider said Wednesday that Bichette (knee) has yet to resume running but could be cleared to do so "hopefully soon," Keegan Matheson of MLB.com reports.
Analiz
General manager Ross Atkins noted earlier Wednesday that Bichette is making progress every day, but the GM was noncommittal on Bichette's return date. The Blue Jays have not ruled Bichette out for the ALDS, but until he's able to run without issue, it's difficult to project when he might rejoin the active roster. Bichette has been shelved for the last three-plus weeks with a PCL sprain in his left knee.

Progressing, but timeline uncertain
Blue Jays general manager Ross Atkins said Wednesday of Bichette (knee) that "every day has gotten better for him," but it remains "day-to-day" in regard to the shortstop's timeline to return, Keegan Matheson of MLB.com reports.
Analiz
Bichette's recovery from a PCL sprain in his left knee is coming along, but it remains up in the air as to whether he will be ready to play in time for Game 1 of the ALDS on Saturday. One possibility is Bichette coming back initially as a designated hitter. The Blue Jays should have more on the 27-year-old status later this week.

Return date remains uncertain
The Blue Jays are optimistic that Bichette (knee) will be able to return for the American League Division Series, set to begin Saturday, but a timetable for his return is still up in the air, Keegan Matheson of MLB.com reports.
Analiz
It's no big secret that Bichette wouldn't have been available had Toronto been forced to play in the wild-card round, making the first-round bye all the more valuable. "I will do everything I can in the next four or five days to see what we can do," said Bichette after Sunday's division-clinching victory over the Rays. "I'm feeling better. Every day, I'm feeling better. I don't have a date, but I will be doing everything that I possibly can to get back." The club should have another update on the star shortstop closer to Game 1 on Saturday, and if not, his availability will be evident based on whether his name is listed on the Blue Jays' roster for the ALDS.

Unlikely for wild-card round
Blue Jays manager John Schneider said Sunday that it's "pretty unlikely" that Bichette (knee) would be available if Toronto plays in the wild-card round of the playoffs, Ben Nicholson-Smith of Sportsnet.ca reports.
Analiz
Bichette is taking part in some activity, including light hitting and throwing, but he's still not running, per Keegan Matheson of MLB.com. A left knee sprain put Bichette on the injured list back on Sept. 9. The Blue Jays can clinch the AL East title and a first-round bye with a win or a Yankees loss Sunday.
