A Toronto steakhouse is doing its part to keep Bo Bichette right where he is, and it did so in a way that immediately caught fans’ attention.
ANIML Steakhouse went viral this week after posting a letter to Bichette on Instagram, offering him free steak for life if he re-signs with the Toronto Blue Jays.
While there have been some funny free agent ideas out there, this might take the cake.
“Dear Bo Bichette,” the post said. “Toronto suits you. The city, the energy, the fans -- it all feels right, much like a perfectly cooked steak. At Animl, we believe in commitments that last -- the craft, the care, and the city we call home.
“In that spirit, we ask you to re-sign with the Toronto Blue Jays -- and consider this our promise: Steak for life on us. No negotiations. No fine print. Just a standing reservation at our table. Stay in Toronto. We’ll handle dinner, you bring home the hardware.”
Bichette has become one of the faces of baseball in not just Toronto, but Canada, and the city and country have loved everything about him. Rightfully so, too, as Bichette is a great dude and an elite player.
Obviously, a lifetime supply of steak probably won’t change much in contract talks, but it’s a nice little gig if Bichette were to re-sign.
With how quiet the offseason has been around Major League Baseball, we baseball lovers needed something to laugh at. ANIML did just that with its latest Instagram post.
