The Toronto Blue Jays have been looking at trade options for shortstop Bo Bichette and it seems like the Milwaukee Brewers are interested as they are in need of a replacement for Willy Adames.
In a recent report, MLB insider Bob Nightengale stated that Bichette wants no part in re-signing with the Blue Jays in free agency which will likely prompt them to actively looks for trade options.
"This is the final year before Vladimir Guerrero and Bo Bichette leave town as free agents," Nightengale wrote. "Bichette is as good as gone, with no real interest in returning, friends say." -Nightengale

Now that Adames is gone, the Brewers are looking for a solid replacement to remain competitive next season and it looks like they are interested in Bichette.
Bichette would make a lot of sense for the Brewers, especially because Milwaukee would have a real chance to extend him in free agency next offseason. -Presnell
The Brewers will likely have to part ways with a few high end prospects if they plan on landing Bichette as he will definitely not come cheap.
The Brewers would likely have to part ways with a few top prospects to acquire the star shortstop, but if they can get him to revert back to his 2023 form, Milwaukee will once again be favored to take the NL Central. -Pressnell
Even if the Blue Jays don't end up moving Bichette to Milwaukee, there is a solid chance he is traded before Spring Training as he has made it clear that he will not re-sign.
Atkins needs to get in gear and get a deal done before Bichette's value goes down since if he wait to trade him into the season, the receiving team will pay less since they will not even get a full season out of him.
