[edit]

The Pittsburgh Pirates signed Bido as an international free agent on March 14, 2017.[1] He spent his first professional season with the Dominican Summer League Pirates, posting a 1–8 record and 5.33 ERA across 15 contests.[2] In 2018, he made 14 starts for the Low–A West Virginia Black Bears, registering a 4–6 record and 4.18 ERA with 58 strikeouts across 75+1⁄3 innings of work.[3] Bido began the 2019 season with the Single–A Greensboro Grasshoppers,[4] and was promoted to the High–A Bradenton Marauders in July. In 25 combined starts, he accumulated a 12–8 record and 3.32 ERA with 107 strikeouts in 135+2⁄3 innings pitched.[5]

Bido did not play a game in 2020 due to the cancellation of the Minor League Baseball season because of the COVID-19 pandemic.[6] He returned to action in 2021, splitting the year between the Double–A Altoona Curve and Triple–A Indianapolis Indians. In 23 games (21 starts) Bido recorded a 4–8 record and 5.33 ERA with 98 strikeouts across 101+1⁄3 innings of work.[7] Bido remained with Indianapolis for the entirety of the 2022 season, making 32 appearances and working to a 3–8 record and 4.53 ERA with a career–high 122 strikeouts in 111+1⁄3 innings pitched.[8]

Bido began the 2023 season back with Triple–A Indianapolis.[9] In 12 games (10 starts), he registered a 3–4 record and 4.55 ERA with 56 strikeouts in 55+1⁄3 innings pitched. On June 14, 2023, Bido was selected to the 40-man roster and promoted to the major leagues for the first time.[10][11] In 16 appearances for Pittsburgh, he logged a 2–5 record and 5.86 ERA with 48 strikeouts across 50+2⁄3 inning pitched. On November 17, the Pirates non–tendered Bido, making him a free agent.[12]

Oakland Athletics

[edit]

On November 20, 2023, Bido signed a major league contract with the Oakland Athletics, paying him $750,000.[13] He was optioned to the Triple–A Las Vegas Aviators to begin the 2024 season.[14] The Athletics promoted him to the major leagues to start one game of a doubleheader on May 8.[15]
