After a promising start to his career, this former Blue Jays top prospect has had a tough road over the last year.

Biggio had been acquired by the Braves in a trade back in early September. He played in four games for Atlanta, going 1-for-5.

Biggio was designated for assignment by the Blue Jays earlier this season then traded to the Los Angeles Dodgers. He played in 30 games for Los Angeles, hitting just .192. However, he's also likely to get a World Series ring out of the experience. In addition to Los Angeles, he also spent time in the minors for the San Francisco Giants before getting to Atlanta.The son of Hall of Famer Craig Biggio, Cavan was a fifth-round pick of the Blue Jays back in 2016 out of Notre Dame.

Biggio is now 29 years old, so he's still got some athletic prime left. Given his former prospect status, he's likely to get another chance this offseason, but he will almost certainly have to settle for a minor league pact.Brady Farkas is a baseball writer for Fastball on Sports Illustrated/FanNation and the host of 'The Payoff Pitch' podcast which can be found on Apple Podcasts and Spotify.
