Earlier today, the Yankees claimed RHP Osvaldo Bido off waivers from the Los Angeles Angels.

Bido, 30, made 26 appearances (10 starts) with the Athletics in 2025 over three stints (3/27-5/16, 5/31-6/19 and 7/10-end of season), going 2-5 with one save and a 5.87 ERA (79.2IP, 93H, 56R/52ER, 35BB, 68K, 19HR). He made his first career Opening Day roster and set career highs in appearances, innings pitched and strikeouts. Bido was designated for assignment by the Athletics on December 15, 2025 and was claimed off waivers by the Tampa Bay Rays on December 19, 2025. He was designated for assignment by the Rays on January 12, 2026 and claimed off waivers by the Miami Marlins on January 16, 2026. He was then designated for assignment by Miami on January 20, 2026 and claimed off waivers by the Los Angeles Angels on January 27, 2026.

Over parts of three Major League seasons with the Pittsburgh Pirates (2023) and the Athletics (2024-25), the right-handed pitcher has gone 9-13 with one save and a 5.07 ERA (193.2IP, 191H, 116R/109ER, 82BB, 179K, 26HR) in 58 career games (28 starts). The Puerto Plata, D.R., native was originally signed by the Pittsburgh Pirates as a non-drafted free agent on March 15, 2017. He was non-tendered on November 17, 2023, and signed with the Oakland A’s as a minor league free agent on November 21, 2023.

To make room on the 40-man roster, the Yankees have designated INF Braden Shewmake for assignment.
