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

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.

Toronto Blue Jays infielder Cavan Biggio (shoulder) is taking batting practice on the field at spring training on Thursday. Biggio has been dealing with left-shoulder tendinitis in camp, but the issue never sounded serious, and he has plenty of time to get ready for Opening Day in late March. The 28-year-old probably won't play in Grapefruit League games this weekend, but he should be able to join the lineup sooner than later in spring action. Biggio was the team's everyday second baseman down the stretch in 2023 and will compete for playing time at both the keystone and third base for the Jays in 2024. Plate discipline is probably Biggio's biggest asset, as he's proven to be a below-average hitter in recent seasons and strikes out far too much. As a likely utility player for Toronto, he's merely a middle-infield option in deep-mixed fantasy leagues.
