Bido proved to be a nice addition for the A's after he was non-tendered by the Pirates in November of 2023. He made 16 appearances between the rotation and bullpen, pitching to a 3.41 ERA and 1.09 WHIP over 63.1 MLB innings before right wrist flexor tendonitis ended his season. He had an 11.81 ERA the third time through the order, which leaves open the distinct possibility that his future lies in the bullpen. His four-seamer, slider, changeup and cutter all had xBAs under .200 last season, and with that kind of repertoire, the book is not closed on Bido starting. Despite the team context, Bido might be worth a flier to see if he can break camp with a rotation spot. Read Past Outlooks
