• Called up by A's
    The Athletics recalled Bido from Triple-A Las Vegas on Friday.

    Advice: Bido will join the big-league roster for the second time this season, taking the place of Vinny Nittoli, who was DFA'd in a corresponding move. Bido made a spot start in his only MLB appearance this season, yielding four runs across 2.2 innings before being removed with a blister. However, Bido will likely operate out of the bullpen during this stint with Oakland. Rotowire.com Today, 2:09 pm
     
  • Athletics recall Osvaldo Bido from Triple-A
    Athletics recalled RHP Osvaldo Bido from Triple-A Las Vegas.

    Advice: The 28-year-old hurler has made just one appearance with the A’s this season, posting a 13.50 ERA, 1.86 WHIP and a 4/2 K/BB ratio over 2 2/3 innings in his lone start. Presumably, he’s up to add some length to a depleted Athletics’ bullpen, but we’ll wait and see how he’s utilized. Vinny Nittoli was designated for assignment in a corresponding move on Friday.
