Toronto Blue Jays all-star shortstop Bo Bichette will not be in the starting lineup Saturday against the Kansas City Royals.
Bichette returned from the 10-day injured list Friday and will be available off of the bench as the Blue Jays “seek to build up him” following a right quad strain, according to Sportsnet’s Shi Davidi.
