Cavan Biggio's Stats, Metrics, Game Logs, Projections & Rankings

The Los Angeles Dodgers designated infielder/outfielder Cavan Biggio for assignment prior to Monday's series opener against the visiting Philadelphia Phillies. After hitting .192 (14-for-73) with three homers and 10 RBI in 30 games for the Dodgers since being acquired on June 12 from the Toronto Blue Jays, Biggio was the odd man out on LA's roster as superstar first baseman Freddie Freeman was reinstated from the family emergency list on Monday. If Biggio clears waivers, he will either be optioned to the minor leagues or become an unrestricted free agent. It's been a rough ride since promising 2019 and 2020 campaigns for the 29-year-old former top prospect, who's slashing an uninspiring .217/.325/.349 in 979 at-bats over his last four seasons.

Jeff Passan of ESPN.com has reported that the Los Angeles Dodgers have acquired superutilityman Cavan Biggio from the Toronto Blue Jays. Biggio, 29, was designated for assignment last week after spending over five years with the franchise. Biggio struggled this season offensively and was hitting .200 with two homers and nine RBI over 110 at-bats this season. His addition to the Dodgers could mean that utilitymen, Enrique Hernandez or Chris Taylor could be replaced with Biggio. Regardless, none of the three hold value and can be left on the waiver wire for now.

Toronto Blue Jays infielder Cavan Biggio (shoulder) is "still going in the right direction," according to manager John Schneider. Biggio hit in Sunday's simulated game in camp and has been doing full defensive drills as he recovers from tendinitis in his left (non-throwing) shoulder in spring training. It's not considered a serious injury for the 28-year-old, but the Blue Jays have been slow-playing him. It's unclear when Biggio will make his Grapefruit League debut, but as long as he doesn't have any setbacks with his shoulder, he still has time to be ready for Opening Day on March 28. Biggio should bounce around between second and third base for the Jays in 2024, but his bat has been underwhelming for fantasy managers the last three years. Unless he can make more contact, Biggio will merely be useful for infield depth in AL-only leagues.
